A Qualitative Analysis of the Asam Program

Developing leaders is vital to Air Mobility Command (AMC) to ensure future success of AMC, as a command, and subordinate mobility units. AMC has implemented several programs under Phoenix Horizon to help create a large pool of highly competitive mobility officers through leadership development programs. This research focuses on one of those programs, the Advanced Study of Air Mobility (ASAM). Prior to this research, formal written documentation did not exist on the goals, objectives and overall conduct of the ASAM program. This research attempted to evaluate ASAM through goal and objective development and their relation to current resources.
