Developing leaders for long-term success is a challenge for most organizations, including the Armed Services. The Obama administration's 2010 National Security Strategy focused on renewing leadership training while the 2012 National Security Strategy articulated agility, adaptability, and innovativeness as essential for strategic defense. Unfortunately, various researches and studies have questioned if the Army's organizational culture/climate hinders its Campaign of Learning initiatives designed to develop the highly effective leaders required to overcome 21st Century threats growing in complexity and diversity. This qualitative case study was guided by the Army's Campaign of Learning concept and publications via an adaptive leadership theoretical lens. Data results are based on the participation of N=19 commissioned officers from the U.S. Army Special Operations Aviation Command. A combination of categorical and thematic analysis was used to identify response patterns used to answer the research questions. The majority (84.2%) of respondents were not familiar with the Army's Campaign for Learning Initiative and believed its pervading the force hindered by its cultures and climates. Operational (84.2%), institutional (73.7%), and self-development (68.4%) pathways were reported as benefiting leadership training while mentorship (100%), counseling (89.5%), and regulatory publications (79.5%) were considered beneficial to leader development. Nearly one-third (31.8%) strongly disagreed that everyone is a leader. A thematic analysis regarding the characteristics required of core, adaptive, and innovative leadership, identified eight reoccurring themes including (a) Flexible, (b) Competence, (c) Strategic, (d) Grit, (e) Honest, (f) Caring, (g) Collaborative, and (h) Humility, in rank order of overall importance. Study findings concurred with previous literature which suggested a leader's behavior, decision style, and power type are both influenced and motivated by the training and leader development received. This research study contributes to understanding best practices in developing innovative and adaptive leader to overcome 21st Century challenges within the monarchial system of the military. Future research listed was identifying gaps/inefficiencies within the Army's mentorship program and process to revise publications for relevancy as an essential part in developing military leaders capable of effectively adapting to rapid global change.
