The Differences Between Manoeuvre Warfare and Decentralized Command

The emphasis is on training personnel well enough ahead of time that they can follow their commanders intent in combat after only receiving broad guidance. Subunit must still keep their commanders informed of any actions that might affect adjacent units so you end up with a situation where the commander is not telling you exactly what to do but giving you broad guidance. The NCOs provide most of the collective experience for this reason they should participate in most of the tactical decisions.
