HONOR - "I will bear true faith and
allegiance..." Accordingly, we will conduct
ourselves in the highest ethical manner in all
relationships with peers, superiors and
subordinates. We will be honest and truthful in
our dealings with each other and with those
outside the Navy. Illegal or improper behavior
will not be tolerated. We are accountable for our
professional and personal behavior.
COURAGE - "I will support and defend..."
Accordingly, we will have courage to meet the
demands of our profession and the mission when it
is demanding, or otherwise difficult. Courage is
the value that gives us the moral and mental
strength to do what is right, even in the face of
personal or professional adversity.
COMMITMENT - "I will obey the orders..."
Accordingly, we will demand respect up and
down the chain of command. We will care for the

12
BASIS OF AUTHORITY

13
LIMITATIONS OF AUTHORITY
Organizational authority beyond that necessary to
fulfill assigned duties and responsibilities
should not be delegated. Authority should never
be delegated beyond the lowest level of
competence and may be limited by command.
14
ACCOUNTABILITY
The leader must be accountable period! I
think that accountability is something that weve
gotten away from in the last few years. We tend
not to make decisions on our own, we do it by
committee, and when we do it by committee, then
no one person is accountable. The leader must be
accountable for actions and decisions made,
regardless of their outcome, and meet personal
commitments promptly and fully. I couldnt
stress this more.

COMMUNICATION ELEMENTS
18
PERCEPTIONS
Perception is the act of gaining knowledge
through one of the senses seeing, hearing,
touching, smelling or tasting. Since perceptions
differ, successful communication occurs only when
the receiver successfully interprets the message
as the sender intended.
