520			_aStudy of top level leadership in Australia's armed forces which emphasises the importance of officers being able to move from rapid decision making to a culture in which taking time to assess and consider is vital to strategic decisions which will affect policy years into the future. Study is of the processes of decision making rather than what decisions are made."The Chiefs breaks fresh ground, not just in Australia but internationally. The vast majority of such studies cover the role as it applies in the operational context. In contrast, The Chiefs analysed the senior military leadership role as and where it actually is done in the Australian military institution." (extract from executive summary).
