To ensure the respect of their men, outgoing Philippine Army (PA) commander Lt. Gen. Noel A. Coballes on Monday advised young officers, aspiring to reach flag rank, to always lead at the front.
He added that this sums up most his combat experience.
The former is scheduled to retire this coming Feb. 7 after reaching the mandatory retirement age of 56.
Coballes said that taking risk is worthwhile, but then you have to manage the risk.
Also, another defining leadership style of the PA chief is empowering the non-commissioned officer corps by emphasizing their role as key leaders and giving them distinction and recognition.
Coballes also mentioned that the morale and welfare of the troops is one of his paramount concerns, and that this is evident in the programs and projects that had been implemented during his incumbency, which include, among others, providing decent and quality housing for the soldiers and improving the health care services and facilities.
Lastly, the PA chief shared the success of the Army Transformation Roadmap (ATR) in the continued pursuit of the Army for change and transformation.
Coballes will be leaving the PA with the ATR in full swing and with the Internal Peace and Security Plan "Bayanihan" continuing to gain headway and positive results.
