He is a graduate of the 1981 Equal Opportunity Advisor Course. He came to DEOMI because he transitioned into the Social Actions Human Relations/Equal Opportunity Treatment (EOT/HRE) career field in the U.S. Air Force โ€“ A career field he had passion and commitment for. Letโ€™s see how his experience at DEOMI influenced his career. ๐ŸŽค ๐‘ซ๐’Š๐’… ๐‘ซ๐‘ฌ๐‘ถ๐‘ด๐‘ฐ ๐’Ž๐’†๐’†๐’• ๐’š๐’๐’–๐’“ ๐’†๐’™๐’‘๐’†๐’„๐’•๐’‚๐’•๐’Š๐’๐’๐’”? ๐‘ฏ๐’๐’˜? ๐Ÿ’ฌ DEOMI exceeded my expectations. Coming from a civil rights background, I was inspired by my mother, Mamie McNeil Wade, and my cousin, Major General Joseph McNeil. DEOMI prepared me to follow their path, equipping me with skills in executive development, investigations, public speaking, and more. This foundation led to significant achievements, including being named HQ AETCโ€™s EOT / HRE Program Manager of the Year in 1992 and returning to DEOMI as a guest speaker in 1993. ๐ŸŽค ๐‘พ๐’‰๐’‚๐’• ๐’˜๐’‚๐’” ๐’Ž๐’๐’”๐’• ๐’Ž๐’†๐’Ž๐’๐’“๐’‚๐’ƒ๐’๐’† ๐’‚๐’ƒ๐’๐’–๐’• ๐‘ซ๐‘ฌ๐‘ถ๐‘ด๐‘ฐ? ๐Ÿ’ฌ The โ€œJohn Grayโ€ experience was transformative, teaching me to validate my perceptions. The facultyโ€™s commitment to our growth was evident, fostering introspection and self-awareness. DEOMI made me a better professional and person. ๐ŸŽค ๐‘ฏ๐’๐’˜ ๐’‰๐’‚๐’” ๐‘ซ๐‘ฌ๐‘ถ๐‘ด๐‘ฐ ๐’Š๐’๐’‡๐’๐’–๐’†๐’๐’„๐’†๐’… ๐’š๐’๐’–๐’“ ๐’„๐’‚๐’“๐’†๐’†๐’“ ๐’ƒ๐’†๐’š๐’๐’๐’… ๐’•๐’‰๐’† ๐‘ซ๐’๐‘ซ? ๐Ÿ’ฌ DEOMIโ€™s impact is profound. I received the 2023 Lifetime Achievement Award from the Fayetteville โ€“ Cumberland Human Relations Commission. My DEOMI education prepared me for roles in North Carolina local governments, addressing historical and contemporary community challenges. Iโ€™ve trained military leaders, managed HR for large organizations, and consulted on DEI globally. My doctoral research and volunteer leadership roles are rooted in my DEOMI foundation. My success post-retirement is built on the education I received at DEOMI. ๐ŸŽค ๐‘พ๐’‰๐’‚๐’• ๐’˜๐’๐’–๐’๐’… ๐’š๐’๐’– ๐’๐’Š๐’Œ๐’† ๐’•๐’ ๐’”๐’‚๐’š ๐’•๐’ ๐’„๐’–๐’“๐’“๐’†๐’๐’• ๐’‚๐’๐’… ๐’‡๐’–๐’•๐’–๐’“๐’† ๐‘ซ๐‘ฌ๐‘ถ๐‘ด๐‘ฐ ๐’”๐’•๐’–๐’…๐’†๐’๐’•๐’”? ๐Ÿ’ฌ Mission accomplishment and quality of life are inseparable. Equity of treatment is crucial for mission success. A colonel once told me, โ€œIf people violate military policies, they either have an education problem or an attitude problem. You address the former, and advise on the latter.โ€ This wisdom has guided me throughout my career. Wade concluded by stating how DEOMI remains the most significant academic experience of his life, and that includes his doctoral work at Colorado State, and that the networks and friendships formed at DEOMI are lifelong. ๐Ÿ™ Thank you, Anthony Wade, for sharing your story with us. #DEOMI4Life #DEOMI_CenterOfExcellence #DEOMI_AlumniFoundation

HFC Graduate Director, Dr. Mustapha Mouloua, graciously introduced DEOMI to four simulation lab spaces, currently being used in his department. The experience enriched DEOMIโ€™s understanding of existing simulation technology, how the technology relates to DEOMI's research efforts, and its applicability as a future mode of training and education at DEOMI. Thank you for your hospitality Dr. Mouloua! We look forward to fostering future opportunities for collaboration. #DEOMI_CenterofExcellence
