A software tool for evaluating the effects of culture on military operations
conference contribution
posted on 2009-06-17, 12:56 authored by A Hodgson, Carys SiemieniuchThis paper presents the military rationale for developing an
improved understanding of the effects of culture on the
performance of military organizations and their partners. In
particular the change from conventional high intensity warfare
to asymmetric warfare increases the interactions
between different cultures within multi-national military
forces and in the local populations. A brief description of
culture and cultural attributes is presented. A culture-based
evaluation tool (the Soft Factors Modeling Tool), which has
been developed by the authors, is described.
