text: Principles and Elements
  LEADER EDUCATION
  1-43. Leader investment is essential to promote, train, prioritize, and improve the readiness of Soldiers and
  units. Leaders drive cultural change by providing the resources for that change. The success or failure of the
  H2F System depends upon the quality of its leadership. Leadership is the process of influencing Soldiers by
  providing purpose, direction, and motivation. Unit leaders are responsible for the success of the H2F System
  and are accountable for their unit’s results. They have to be highly aware of how the H2F System works,
  which requires much more than scheduling and supervising the training. New knowledge acquisition is
  required by leaders at all levels of the Army. H2F encompasses knowledge domains that are not typically
  owned by one expert. However, because these domains impact the success of the Soldier in the garrison and
  on the battlefield, Army leaders must understand these domains.
  1-44. The goal of H2F leadership education is to prepare leaders to communicate, understand, establish, and
  support H2F within their organizations. Leaders must understand their organizational role from supervising
  to training to resourcing. Whether in command or not, Army leaders possess the knowledge of best practices.
  The result of this leader education is improved compliance with H2F programming, a reduction in the
  disparity of readiness programming, and a marshalling of resources. There will be a reduction in the
  likelihood and severity of physical and psychological injury or disease. These outcomes occur when leaders
  understand the value and utility of the H2F System.
  1-45. The leadership education element of the H2F System builds awareness and sustains mastery so that
  leaders can set the example of optimal readiness across the physical and nonphysical domains. When leaders
  extend themselves completely in strenuous training, Soldiers more often follow their example. When Soldiers
  feel their chain of command believes in H2F to the extent that the chain of command regularly engages in
  the activities, Soldiers are motivated to greater effort. The unprepared, hesitant leader loses the confidence
  and trust of Soldiers almost immediately. The well-prepared, confident leader gains the respect and
  cooperation of all Soldiers at the outset and builds greater ésprit de corps.
  INSTITUTIONAL TRAINING DOMAIN
  1-46. The Army’s institutional training domain includes Army training centers, functional schools, and
  professional military education. This domain includes the centers of excellence and schools in TRADOC.
  H2F instruction is embedded in institutional training and other leader development schools. Examples might
  include—
  * Basic combat training (BCT): training for Soldiers to learn to fully cooperate with their leaders
  and fellow Soldiers. Orderly movement of Soldiers requires a precise and unified effort. A Soldier
  learns that a team works smoothly when every Soldier does his and her part. Each Soldier learns
  to respond to commands and learns what fellow Soldiers must do. This teamwork is established
  through the medium of drills. Drills teach Soldiers where to place their feet and arms during
  exercises, how to march, and how to handle a weapon. Over the course of BCT, Soldiers find pride
  in their teams’ unified response to command.
  * United States Army Medical Center of Excellence contextualized training for enlisted Soldiers
  and officers in medical professional military education and MOS-specialty coursework to enable
  better, rapid H2F support to the units they serve. Examples include H2F master trainer certification
  for occupational therapists, behavioral health providers, physical therapists, and physical therapy
  specialists.
  * United States Military Academy: H2F master trainer certification as course requirement prior to
  commissioning.
  * Reserve Officer Training Corps: H2F master trainer certification as a course requirement prior to
  commissioning.
  * Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences: applied human performance optimization
  courses for medical providers in the Army’s medical system.
  * Integration into officer initial military training (IMT) and professional military education to
  develop leader H2F skills at each echelon.
