Which choice best describes how Be-Know-Do should influence issuing orders?

• A. Delegating all tasks without personal example.
• B. Exemplify Be attributes, possess Know-how, and demonstrate Do actions when issuing orders.
• C. Issuing orders without Be-Know-Do alignment.
• D. Focus only on admin duties.

Answer: (B)

Be-Know-Do in issuing orders means you don’t just tell soldiers what to do—you model the standard through your character and bearing, you use your knowledge of the mission and how to accomplish it, and you demonstrate the actions you expect from others. The best choice captures this full approach by stating to exemplify Be attributes, possess Know-how, and demonstrate Do actions when issuing orders. This ensures that orders reflect your credibility and ethics, are clear and actionable, and are carried out with confidence because subordinates see you as competent and trustworthy. Delegating all tasks without personal example undermines credibility and trust; issuing orders without Be-Know-Do alignment weakens leadership presence; focusing only on admin duties neglects the leadership aspect that conveys intent, standards, and readiness.
