This document contains the case study situations for the discipling, mentoring, and coaching new and developing leaders Mini Case Study Assignments. For a given York leadership trait (Wisdom, Vision, Teamwork, Character, Attitude, Conduct), if there is more than one case situation presented, the student should choose one of the situations for his or her case study assignment. Each case situation is based on actual situations, most of which were received from students in AVIA undergraduate courses and incorporated with their permission. The names, places, and some details in each case situation have been modified to fit the academic situation and to protect the actual participants. See the assignment instructions and grading rubric for details on accomplishing the assignments. Lessons derived from each mini case study analysis may be used in the final assignment: Mentoring, Discipling, and Coaching Plan for Developing Aviation Leaders. It is advisable to review the Mentoring, Discipling, and Coaching Plan for Developing Aviation Leaders assignment instructions now, and you can begin to outline the paper as you begin your Mini Case Study assignments.

(1). Wisdom Case Study Situations – choose one of the two situations presented

Thematic Question: How do leaders give value while mentoring, discipling, and coaching subordinate leaders through wisdom?

Wisdom Case Study: Crushed Aspirations

The Players

· Second Lieutenant (2LT) Billy Mitchell, young Air Force officer in fighter aircraft initial training

· Captain Chuck Yeager, mid-level Air Force officer Flight Commander and flight instructor (2Lt Mitchell’s Flight Commander)

· Lieutenant Colonel (Lt Col) Hap Arnold, senior Air Force officer and training squadron commander (Captain Yeager and 2Lt Mitchell’s squadron commander)

The Situation

2Lt Mitchell is in the basic fighter maneuvers (visual dog fighting) phase of his fighter aircraft initial training. Already in the training course for a few weeks, he has been struggling to meet the performance standards required to pass his current phase of training and move on to more complex mission training. He made it through the first phase, called offensive basic fighter maneuvers, but he is now stuck and struggling through the second phase called defensive basic fighter maneuvers (BFM), in which the pilot must survive and defeat an attack from a fighter aircraft approaching from behind. 2Lt Mitchell had graduated at the top of his initial pilot training class, and as a result, he was assigned to the Air Force’s top performing fighter aircraft. There is no doubt that he has excellent pilot knowledge and skills. His flight commander in the fighter training squadron, a mid-level officer, had been flying with him during his training, but a new flight commander, Captain Chuck Yeager, just took over the flight. Assessing the situation with 2Lt Mitchell, Captain Yeager decided to become 2Lt Mitchell’s flight instructor. Captain Yeager’s immediate supervisor, his squadron commander Lt Col Arnold, agreed with this course of action.

Seeing that 2Lt Mitchell had been struggling in both offensive and defensive BFM, Captain Yeager decided to first conduct an offensive BFM training flight with 2Lt Mitchell, in which Captain Yeager would ride with 2Lt Mitchell in the back seat of one of the squadron’s two-seat training aircraft. 2Lt Mitchell passed the training flight, but not without some deficiencies noted by Captain Yeager. Next, it was on to defensive BFM. In the defensive BFM phase, in which the student pilot must learn to maneuver the aircraft in relation to an attacking aircraft that is behind the defender, 2Lt Mitchell could not achieve any standard of performance. In this phase, the students have four training flights, and on the fourth flight the student must achieve proficiency in all required tasks to move to the next training phase. On the fourth and final flight in the phase, due to concerns about performance, Captain Yeager again flew in the backseat of 2Lt Mitchell’s aircraft. 2Lt Mitchell not only did not achieve proficiency, he attempted a maneuver that most likely would have resulted in a fatal accident if Captain Yeager had not intervened. It was this flight that convinced Captain Yeager that the most likely source of 2Lt Mitchell’s performance issues was that he, for some unknown reason, was unable to physically achieve the required G’s to maneuver the aircraft in a way that would achieve the training and mission objectives. A pilot flying a high performance fighter aircraft must be able to pull and sustain eight to nine G’s without graying or blacking out, while maintaining sight of the adversary aircraft. 2Lt Mitchell was only achieving a maximum of six G’s consistently, and he was easily defeated by the adversary aircraft.

Captain Yeager found himself in a dilemma as a new training squadron flight commander and leader for the instructors and training students in his flight. His decisions regarding Mitchell would affect Mitchell’s career and Air Force Leadership development. They would also have and effect on how he handled future cases involving student training. Captain Yeager daily went to God in prayer and Scripture for help and guidance in his decision making. Mitchell was an excellent pilot, but he could not achieve the required performance in the high G maneuvering flight environment. Yeager needed more than knowledge to handle this situation and to successfully do his part in developing Mitchell into an Air Force leader; Yeager needed wisdom. He sought that wisdom through prayer, Scripture, and seeking counsel from others, including his direct supervisor, Lt Col Arnold.

Based on the diagnosis regarding deficiencies in maneuvering the aircraft at maximum performance, the squadron commander in consultation with his higher commander recommended additional G-force training at the Air Force’s centrifuge facility rather than immediate removal from training. Captain Yeager believed that 2Lt Mitchell had already demonstrated an inherent inability to achieve the required performance for fighter aircraft and should be reassigned to a different aircraft, but he was overruled by his higher commanders. After additional centrifuge training, 2Lt Mitchell returned to the fighter training squadron to resume his training. It was immediately apparent that he was unable to translate the centrifuge training back into the aircraft, and he was removed from fighter aircraft training and reassigned to an Air Force aircraft that was not high performance in terms of G capability and requirements. Six months later, Captain Yeager received a phone call from 2Lt Mitchell thanking Captain Yeager for helping him out of the fighter aircraft and into his current aircraft. In the Air Force system at that time, if a student pilot self-eliminated from training, the student pilot was removed from flight status as a pilot and could not be assigned a different aircraft. Because he was removed from his fighter aircraft training by the training squadron and the reason for removal was specific to fighter aircraft, he could be reassigned to a different aircraft.

Questions for the Case Study

1. Identify two leadership issues or dilemmas, faced by the mid-level leader, Captain Yeager. Explain your reasoning for picking the issues you pick.

2. Compare and contrast this situation to a similar situation you may have personally faced, experienced, or observed as a leader, or as one being led, or as an observer on the side-lines.

3. Using the Module One leadership trait of wisdom as the conceptual foundation for your mini case study, analyze and explain the importance of wisdom in dealing with this situation in terms of mentoring, discipling, and coaching others for leadership. Use at least five lesson topics in Workbook 1: Wisdom to support your analysis and explanation. You should utilize and cite concrete support from the Scripture, Stories, and/or Principles to Absorb sections of the Workbook lessons.

4. Within your mini case study, contrast this situation with Paul’s words and instructions in 1 Corinthians 1:18-31 and 3:18-23. Thought Question: How does God want us to exercise wisdom in our relationship with Him as leaders and in mentoring, discipling, and coaching others to become leaders?

5. Describe and explain lessons derived from your case study analysis that may be applied and practiced in a future similar situation in which you may mentor, disciple, and coach others in their leadership development.

TARIFFS Effects on the Economy

CASE STUDY PAPERS require that students think OUTSIDE THE TEXTBOOK (BOX).

INSTRUCTIONS:

By utilizing the required readings as a base, compose a paper citing appropriate examples/principles from the texts and include a minimum of TWO (2) academic peer reviewed scholarly journal articles (citations) that bring depth and insight to the paper and at LEAST ONE (1) Bible verse quote. The word count of the citations (cites) and the Bible quote do NOT count in the paper’s word count. The paper should focus directly on the posed deliverables. Scripture should be interwoven into the fabric of your paper.

Citation and Reference of Peer Reviewed Journal Articles

Peer reviewed (also called “scholarly” or “academic”) journals are publications in which all the articles have been vetted by one or more experts to ensure that they conform to good practices of scholarship. Unlike most magazine articles, peer reviewed articles nearly always contain citations to back up the author’s thesis. Please read the detailed definition flowing from the California Polytechnic State University.

Many of you have not been taught how to cite/reference peer reviewed journal articles using the APA writing style. In order to understand how to cite/reference peer reviewed journal articles using the APA writing style, please note the following:

The RU Library has the APA Manual in print form: http://library.regent.edu/record=b1700245~S0

The APA has an abbreviated free guide on their website: http://www.apastyle.org/

Additionally, as for bearing down on citing/referencing correctly in APA, the The Purdue Owl : https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/section/2/10/ has really established itself as the dominant website for APA style citations/references and even has a good YouTube video on the basics of APA style https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdAfIqRt60c&feature=youtu.be

Below is an example of a page taken from the Purdue Owl:

https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/10/

Moreover, the RU University Writing Center

http://www.regent.edu/admin/stusrv/writingcenter/home.cfm has many kind instructors who love teaching citation/reference skills to Regent Students. Please use this learning resource, it is free.
