Before you re-design the Reserves and their roles, I seriously suggest you hire a competent firm to do anonymous entrance, serving and exit surveys to find out why people in this generation are joining, staying and leaving. You can have the best designed plan from a military point of view but no one to implement it because you have alienated why people join and stay.
Easy:
- Why do they join? Money, personal challenge, team atmosphere, fun, patriotism.
- Why do they leave? Boring and poorly supported training disconnected from any higher purpose, inconsistent leadership, broken promises, probelms getting courses and zero deployments, and negligent administration.
