**Notes:**
THIS MODEL SUCCINCTLY PORTRAYS HOW THE UNIT CLIMATE PROCESS IS DESIGNED TO WORK, WHO THE MAJOR PLAYERS ARE,  WHAT  THE KEY REFERENCES ARE, AND THE HUMAN RELATIONS DYNAMICS THAT IMPACT ON THE SYSTEM.

IT IS SIGNIFICANT TO NOTE THAT MOST OF THE REFERENCES PROVIDED ARE TRAINING REFERENCES... NOT REFERENCES WRITTEN SPECIFICALLY FOR EO OR HUMAN RELATIONS.  

CURRENTLY AR 600-20 STATES “ IT IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED THAT  COMMANDERS  CONDUCT A UNIT CLIMATE ASSESSMENT  AND UNIT TRAINING NEEDS ASSESSMENT WITHIN 90 DAYS OF ASSUMING COMMAND AND ANNUALLY THEREAFTER”

NEXT RELEASE OF AR 600-20 WILL CHANGE “STRONGLY RECOMMENDED” TO “WILL”.  CURRENT  V CORPS POLICY AS ARTICULATED IN V CORPS AFFIRMATIVE ACTION PLAN (AAP) IS UNITS WILL CONDUCT AN ASSESSMENT WITHIN 90 DAYS AND ANNUALLY THEREAFTER.

NOTE:  DA, USAREUR AND V CORPS IG REGSALSO MANDATE UNITS CONDUCT ASSESSMENT WITHIN PARAMETERS STATED ABOVE
