You can’t compare civilian leadership with military leadership. There is a difference between civilian and military leadership. The military characteristics (managerial) makes that the military only conditional can use civilian leadership and management theories.
The military makes use of an interaction in their governance, which switch between leadership, depending on whether it is performed in the operating structure or during war and war-like conditions. Interactions are also depending on the resolution level you are on, tactical, operational or strategic, and the time constraints, the environment you are in (the threat level). The exchange is trained continuously and the volatility there is hereby achieved is a goal in itself for the military leader. This kind of leadership is called situational leadership
For quite general to understand the difference between civilian and military leadership we need to go one step up and ask if there is a difference between military and civilian thinking. Nobody is born as a military or civilian, and therefore the difference is a product of the environment that surrounds you. Management of men under pressure, combined with the use of force and a statistically relatively high chance of losing life is an
exceptional combination that is unique to the military.
Civilian leaders usually receive no formal training in management. Recruitment takes place mostly within the organization by "promotion to the command" or managers with the right qualifications are obtained from outside the firm. A course can then complement the development and training of leaders. Military leaders are trained from scratch.
