Rethinking land command and military process

Jim Storr’s book examines problems in the organisations and processes involved in land command, asking why they arise and endure. Its central argument challenges reliance on overt process and sets out alternatives: stronger human expertise, fewer people with more training, and faster decision-making and action. The description frames the subject as both practical and organisational, linking how command structures work with the choices they enable. It offers a focused perspective on military strategy through the question of how land forces should organise and act in the 21st century.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in military strategy and land command.
  • Those studying military organisations, processes, and decision-making.
  • Readers exploring arguments for expertise and training in military structures.

Book overview

'Something Rotten' points out logical and practical problems with organisations and processes. It challenges the reader as to why such problems exist and persist. It suggests abandoning much overt process; building up human expertise; relying on fewer but better-trained people; and deciding and acting much faster.
