First Sergeants’ Corner
The Air Force needs self-starters who know when and how to take the initiative. A good leader will not wait around for direction when something must be done to ensure the success of the mission.  They will recognize problems and take the proper action to solve them.  This type of initiative should be encouraged by all leaders, even with a potential for mistakes. 
With the UCI quickly approaching, leaders should encourage others to identify methods to perform their mission better than what is currently being used. You know you’ve got it right when you can accomplish your mission using a lesser amount of resources. Keep your eyes and ears open; always look for better ways to perform your mission!
