  LEADERSHIP
  Leadership is the most essential dynamic of combat power. Leadership is the activity of influencing
  people by providing purpose, direction, and motivation to accomplish the mission and improve the
  organization (ADP 6-22). It is the multiplying andunifying dynamic of combat power, and it represents the
  qualitative difference between units. Leadership drives C2 butis also dependent upon it. The collaboration
  and shared understanding inherent in the operations process prepare leaders for operations, expand shared
  understanding, hone leader judgment, and improve the flexibility that leaders apply to the other dynamics of
  combat power against enemy forces.
  Commanders communicate their will to their formations through leadership. Sound leadership
  manifests as an unrelenting will to accomplish the mission, the ability to understand and adapt to changing
  conditions, and the motivation to persevere through hardship. Leadership inspires individuals to push past
  their perceived breaking point, and to fight for their unit and fellow Soldiers under the most difficult
  circumstances. It provides the intangible qualitative difference in how much combat power a formation can
  generate against enemy forces. (See ADP 6-22for information on leadership.)
  FIREPOWER
  Firepower is the primary source of lethality, and it is essential to defeating an enemy force’s ability
  and will to fight. Leaders generate firepower through direct and indirect fires, using mass, precision, or,
  typically, a combination of the two. Intelligence enables the identification and selection of targets and
  objectives for the application of lethal force. Movement and maneuver enable the positioning of fires
  capabilities where they can be most lethal.
  Firepower facilitates maneuver by suppressing enemy fires and disrupting or preventing the movement
  of enemy forces. Firepower exploits maneuver by neutralizing enemy forces when they react, destroying
  equipment and people, and degrading the will of enemy forces to fight.
  Leaders increase firepower by using capabilities
  from all domains in combinations that overwhelm an enemy Large-scale combat operations can

  intensive. Discretion may require leaders to reserve limited stocks in 72to 96 hours, particularly those
  numbers of precision munitions for specific, important required for cannons, rockets, and
  targets, while they rely on conventional unguided munitions mortars.
  against enemy units and area targets. Large-scale combat
  requireslarge reserves of both precision and unguided munitions and the sustainment capacity to move them
  to forward locations. Air, maritime, space, and cyberspace-based fires enhance the firepower of ground
  forces. Similarly, ground-based firepower complements firepower from other domains. A multidomain
  approach to firepower requires understanding the techniques for controlling and integrating joint fires. This
  includes requesting and integrating space and cyberspace capabilities, electromagnetic attack capabilities,
  and air capabilities.
  INFORMATION
  Information contributes to the disruption and destruction of enemy forces. It is central to the application
  and amplification of combat power. It enables decision making and influences enemy perceptions, decision
  making, and behavior. Information, like leadership, provides a qualitative advantage to friendly combat
  power when it can be acted upon more quickly and effectively than the enemy.
  Army forces collect data and information for analysis and process it to understand situations, make
  decisions, and direct actions that apply combat power against enemy forces. Army forces must fight for
  information about enemy forces while protecting their own information. Friendly counterintelligence,
  counterreconnaissance, and security operations prevent enemy access to friendly information. Offensively,
  commanders fight for information about enemy forces and terrain through continuous reconnaissance and
  surveillance and offensive tasks such as movement to contact or reconnaissancein force.
  Army forces also use information to enhance the effects of destructive or disruptive physical force to
  create psychological effects that disrupt morale, cause human error, and increase uncertainty. Using
