The central issue of this paper addresses the lack of leadership in the acquisition career field and what can be done to correct it. The current environment within the Air Force poses a great leadership challenge to all officers, regardless of career field. However, the occupationalism that the service has fostered over the years has resulted in officers in the acquisition career field focusing on enhancing their managerial skills at the expense of their leadership qualities. As a result, many Program Directors are excellent managers, but lack even basic leadership skills.
