The Army\u2019s chief of public affairs is retiring after an inspector general investigation into allegations stemming from a command climate survey in which 97% of respondents reported experiencing \u201cworkplace hostility,\u201d Army Times has learned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An Army spokesperson, speaking on background to offer additional detail about administrative actions, confirmed that Brig. Gen. Amy Johnston will soon leave the Army.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Department of the Army Inspector General investigation into BG Amy Johnston has concluded and appropriate administrative action was taken,\u201d the spokesperson said. \u201cShe is in transition status preparing for her approved retirement.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The investigation \u201csubstantiated that BG Johnston\u2019s leadership style violated the standards set forth in Army Regulation 600-100,\u201d the spokesperson explained. Allegations of so-called counterproductive or toxic leadership typically fall under that regulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Johnston received a general officer\u2019s memorandum of reprimand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A GOMOR is an administrative punishment that would have likely prevented further promotion. But as a public affairs officer, Johnston was already likely to retire after completing her tour leading the Office of the Chief of Public Affairs, which began in April 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why was Johnston investigated?<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Army Times first reported<\/a> the general\u2019s suspension in September 2021. She was suspended after a scathing OCPA command climate survey revealed mass dissatisfaction with workload, work-life balance and unclear expectations on projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IG complaints bore out similar allegations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Respondents also reported a significant level of racial and sexual harassment in the workplace, according slides documenting the command climate survey results, and which were obtained by Army Times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More than one-in-five survey respondents said they had seen sexual harassment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

More than one-in-four respondents reported racial harassment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A subsequent Task & Purpose investigation<\/a> revealed that the allegations against Johnston included frequent outbursts in meetings, as well as the belittling and demeaning of subordinates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some Army public affairs officials told Task & Purpose they believed that the difficulties with command climate at OCPA undercut the service\u2019s professed \u201cPeople First\u201d philosophy \u2014 a significant problem for the office tasked with messaging it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other officials pointed to the service\u2019s systemic issues with devaluing public affairs, saying they exacerbated issues with Johnston\u2019s leadership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
