How Does the Program Work?

Of course, a successful staff ride begins with a plan and the

Lockhart Group planning team would visit with the course point

of contact to discuss and agree the full range of requirements.

Usually our clients take responsibility for inbound and outbound

travel to the nearest airport. Depending upon client

requirements we take responsibility for accommodation and

coach travel, permits and fees. Our usual requirement is to

provide an academic team of two, who will be the same staff as

planned the staff ride with the Institution’s point of contact. We
prefer to pair a military academic with operational experience of

conflict with a war studies academic. This combination produces
a strong dynamic for understanding the mechanics and

environment of a military campaign with the wider policy,
insights into senior command and the strategic backdrop.

Relevant collateral is issued, and the program begins with a short

briefing and an introductory over view presentation of the key

aspects of the campaign to be studied.

Our experience has shown that at least one evening activity such

as an after-dinner talk on a related aspect of the campaign adds

significant value to the student experience and is always

appreciated.
