REFLECTIONS We are they. Communicate…but listen. Take time to reflect-before and after
(Intellectual leads physical.) You must have a propensity to act. Expect to be surprised. (The first
report is always wrong.) Your organization will reflect you. Have fun!

THOUGHTS FOR THE COMMAND SERGEANTS MAJOR
Social: Join, support, and participate in organizations and events (on and off
post). Pay close attention to protocol (RSVPs) Remember names Social graces (body language/symbolism).Business Your place is next to the commander. You are expected to be the expert. Steal good ideas. Be the voice of the Soldiers and the unit cheerleader (optimism). Attend all award ceremonies/graduations Seek speaking and writing opportunities
