How come the assessment block, Part IV, is at the end of the form?
Possible response: This is where the leader places his/her comments on whether the counseling achieved the desired results and whether or not the soldier took action to improve or correct any of the reasons for the counseling. This is the actual closure to the counseling session.The real issue here is that leaders must utilize this portion of the counseling form. Many leaders fail to come back and assess the counseling and provide feedback to the subordinate.10. This is not the way I was counseled.Possible response: How you may or may not have been counseled is not the issue here. The Developmental Counseling Form is just another way of improving upon a process that we have had in place for a long time, the development of soldiers.
