The U.S. Armed Forces is probably the largest and most diverse organization in the country with an ethnic and racial makeup most reflective of American society. Each individual brings a set of values and attitudes that have been cultivated over many years.
Additionally, as with the military and with you, these values and attitudes are still being shaped and refined with each new experience. Many of us have strong memories about recent events in your lives, such as promotions, schooling, a new baby, or a transfer. These events and ones yet to come, serve to shape our values and attitudes for the future.
However, values and attitudes do not automatically change like the wind. Some values and attitudes, when coupled with a lack of awareness or insensitivity about others who are different can produce confrontations, anger, and even violence. It is imperative that we are all able to recognize and manage our differences so that they do not interfere with the progress and effectiveness to succeed. “TGG” will outline the categories of values and characteristics of attitudes, behavior, beliefs and norms and its effect on day to day continuity.
