Question 27

Discuss spiritual readiness

Answer 27

Spiritual readiness is a vital domain in the H2F System, and it directly impacts the resiliency of individuals and organizations. Encouraging Soldiers to connect and reflect on the worldview or value system that informs their core beliefs, principles, ethics, and morals can empower them to endure and overcome stress, hardship, and tragedy. Leaders have a responsibility to support spiritual readiness practices and create a climate where dignity and respect guide the process. Understanding common spiritual readiness practices enables leaders to support individual spiritual readiness development, sustainment, maintenance, and repair.

Question 28

Discuss Mental Readiness

Answer 28

To optimize performance, Soldiers need to be mentally ready. Mental readiness is deliberately assessed and developed like any other skills through education, training, and practice. To use a computing analogy, addressing both physical and mental readiness is a “systems check” on both the “hardware” and the “software” that makes an effective Soldier.
The H2F System incorporates training techniques to develop individual and unit mental readiness.
