Abstract

In today's military, significant efforts are being made to achieve organizational effectiveness by adapting to the changing characteristics of its members. Currently, South Korea's military organizations, including division-level and below, are primarily composed of the MZ generation, which places great importance on personal satisfaction and values. They believe it is unfair if others do not acknowledge their preferences and opinions. Therefore, there is a need for the military to improve various command methods and organizational culture in line with the characteristics of these organizational members. This study analyzed the characteristics and key elements of mission command in the German military, a militarily advanced country. By examining the case of the German military, we should consider and adopt the adoption of a 'mission command' system that suits the reality of the South Korean military organization, with a focus on the MZ generation, which constitutes the core of our military organization.

오늘날 군은 조직구성원의 특성변화에 맞추어 조직 효과성을 달성하기 위해 많은 노력을 하고 있다. 현재 한국군에서 행동으로 움직이는 여단급 이하 조직구성원은 우리가 흔히 이야기하는 MZ세대가 주축을 이루고 있다. 이와 같은 MZ세대는 개인의 만족과 가치관을 중요시하는 특성으로 타인이 자신의 취향과 의견을 인정해 주지 않으면 공정하지 않다고 생각한다. 따라서 군에서도 이와 같은 조직구성원들의 특성에 맞추어 다양한 지휘 방법과 조직문화를 개선할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 군사 선진국인 독일군의 임무형 지휘의 특성 및 핵심요소를 분석하였으며 이러한 독일군의 사례를 고찰하여 우리나라 군 조직의 주축인 MZ세대의 관점에서 군 조직 실정에 맞는 '임무형 지휘' 시스템을 도입해야 할 것이다.
