Abstract

The present research is based on three case studies among infantry units in the IDF. It uses sensemaking processes in order to examine the way military leaders construct ‘crisis events’. The research findings indicate that ‘crisis events’ in the military context are a subjective matter. It shows that commanders use three criteria for defining a ‘crisis event’: function, control and organizational order. The definition of the constructed ‘event’ differs between commanders depending on their position and role: whereas platoon commanders and company commanders define the ‘events’ examined in the research as ‘crisis events’, battalion commanders and brigade commanders define the different ‘events’ as ‘skirmishes’. These findings suggest that the way commanders construct their definitions of a ‘crisis event’ is a manifestation of the intensity of their organizational embeddedness in the organization implying that different intensities of organizational embeddedness shape the definition that commanders construct in relation to a given ‘event’. These findings strengthen the argument that the contested nature of organizational meanings exists not only in ‘civilian’ organizations but also in military ones.

Fußnoten
1
In the Israeli military context military engagements such as skirmish, offence, attack, infiltration etc. are defined as ‘events’ or ‘operational events’ (in Hebrew: “eroua mivtzaee”). These definitions do not correlate with any doctrinal official categories of combat but signify an Israeli military contextualized definition, which by itself reflect a construction of ‘reality’. The current research examines the construction of ‘crisis events’ which are ‘operational events’ in nature but have evolved otherwise.
 
2
According to Cornelissen et al. (2014) frames are distinguished from acts of framing which involve the ways in which individuals use language or other symbolic gestures in context either to reinforce existing interpretive frames or to call new frames into being.
 
3
The process in which one idea, or conceptual domain, is understood in terms of another is also defined as a conceptual metaphor (Lakoff and Johnson 1999).
 
4
The exact question was: How would you define the event?
 
5
This will be further elaborated in the third of the part of the analysis section.
 
6
As mentioned in the theoretical section, the psychological logic is manifested in the IDF’s organizational point of view for defining crises and even for methods of coping with them. This will be further discussed in the discussion chapter.
 
7
Emotional restraint and control that combat soldiers need to express constitutes a measure for judging the military-organizational professionalism of the combat soldier that creates an internalized awareness within soldiers and enables an automatic action during battle (Ben-Ari 1998, 2004).
 
8
A comprehensive analysis of the way organizational order influences the construction of the way within which commanders manage ‘crises events’ is explained in Padan (forthcoming) “Organizational order as a mechanism for constructing ‘crisis events’—The case of infantry military leaders in the Israeli Military”.
