JJ DID TIE BUCKLEE? Marine Corps adds ‘E’ for ‘Empathy’ to list of leadership traits
-
The Marine Corps has officially updated its leadership traits by adding “empathy” to the classic “JJ DID TIE BUCKLE” acronym, making it “JJ DID TIE BUCKLEE.” This addition reflects a growing recognition of empathy—defined as the ability to understand the emotions and experiences of others—as a critical leadership quality. The change was noted in the Marine Corps’ Sustaining the Transformation and Leading Marines publications. Marine Corps spokesman Lt. Col. Joshua Benson emphasized that empathy has always been a part of Marine culture and leadership, stating that this formal acknowledgment simply puts on paper what Marines have practiced for 249 years. The update builds on discussions from a 2020 Marine Corps University study that highlighted empathy’s importance in leadership, though it’s not a “touchy-feely” concept but one that enables leaders to see situations from their Marines’ perspectives.
