Then I have to say that's a whole kettle of fish altogether.I
have no idea how you can motivate a NCC platoon, especially if you
are also their schoolmates and classmates.One thing is for sure, if
you only bark out orders and never do the hands-on with your guys,
you will not be well-liked and you will find that work does not get
done eventually.Pehaps you could lay off the rank and regimental
part when it's unnecessary.I mean, in NCC, the rank you have is not
the same as the SAF.People shed sweat, mental stress and pain for
that rank, in NCC, it comes merely by seniority and less sweat.So,
keep that for the parade ground, let them know that everyone needs
to put up a good show so that we can do it once and buzz off early
from training.Put yourself in the shoes of your guys, and work
towards that without compromising your leadership.People can
identify a leader from the way he gets things done as opposed to
someone who promises much but doesn't deliver.Hope this helps yeah,
it applies when you enlist in the future too.
