Summary/Abstract: Military leadership, which can be defined as the process of affecting people to accomplish the missions by providing motivation, purpose, and direction, is a highly essential subject in modern military organizations. Although it has previously been studied in terms of leadership development, policy and guiding principles, leader attributes and traits as well as adverse situations and environments, recent developments especially in the fields of AI (artificial intelligence) technologies have necessitated more comprehensive research. Therefore, the training adapted to the classical definitions cannot provide the necessary background for developing leadership in future wars for future soldiers. Concordantly, the aim of this paper is to critically examine the definitions of military leadership in line with recent developments and try to outline a broad perspective on the subject matter.
