Opis

This article will look at Marshall's preparation to become Chief of Staff, his ability to build an effective team, the character of the staff, and Marshall's interaction with these very talented men. With this background, I will then investigate how Marshall handled two critical issues: the support to the beleaguered forces in the Philippines and the reorganization of the Army Staff. Lastly, it will offer some insights into why Marshall was successful as a staff leader.
