Very true
I think, when we look at McChrystal down the road, we'll see two stories,
1. The amazing organizational changes that he overcame (1990-2009) to build a small, elite force. I wished that the story stopped there.
2. Being overwhelmed trying to implement his micro-level changes on the macro-level. Mintzberg provides a good guide to affecting change in the bureaucracy. Charismatic leaders are one way, but it takes time.
