How Hard is Military Planning? - The Military Decision Making Process

A 22 minute overview of MDMP -

During my career as an Army Special Forces Officer, I received a significant amount of training on how to plan military operations and had countless opportunities to plan military operations and missions. I’ve even taught variations of the Military Decision Making Process in 8 different countries.
I helped write 100 pages operations orders that took a week to produce. But I’ve also held a map and imagery onto the nose of a helicopter and briefed pilots and a special forces team using my pencil as a pointer. It all depends on the amount of time you have and the quality and competence of your teammates.
Let’s take a look at Military planning which uses what is affectionately known as the Military Decision making process or MDMP. We will discuss the 7 steps of MDMP, their substeps, and throughout this video I will walk you thru a sample planning cycle for a conventional army military mission.
