Mission Transition: Unlocking Your Next Career (https://lnkd.in/eFW6YzUB) #veteranshelpingveterans #veterantransition

When you find that role you've been searching for, you know there is going to be a lot of competition. What do you do? Give up because the climb is too daunting? Or push... and push harder? Never wavering, and never, ever quitting! For me... it starts with these lines from the US Army's #SoldiersCreed... I will never accept defeat. I will never quit. One place that has been at the top of my list for quite some time is USAA. As an #ArmyVeteran (82nd Airborne Division, U.S. Army) with over 20 years of experience in marketing, communications, creative strategy and execution, project management, brand leadership, consulting, team leadership, operations and strategic planning, multimedia & omnichannel strategy, developing strategic content for local, regional, and global brands, and so much more... I've spent years preparing! Now.... it's time to make that climb. The role that I have been searching for is out there right now and it's going to be in high demand. There will be a lot of competition. But I am prepared and I am ready. My point to all of this? Don't stop chasing what you want. Do everything you can to get ahead of the competition because if you do not, someone else will. And by all means... do not QUIT. I have a vision of where I want to be and I won't let it go until I get there. Why? Because I don't quit. It's that simple. I won't now... and I won't when I am a part of the team. I keep moving forward. #HireME #USAA #Veterans #MilitaryVeteran #HireVets #HireVeterans #Career #Growth #Discipline #Motivation #DisciplineEqualsFreedom #ProfessionalJourney Richard Frank🌊Ethan Krause Edwards Taryn R.

Sooooo... 3 years in and still standing 🥊 💥 Running a small business has been as tricky as predicted (in many cases, just as hard as people warned).   BUT, Ncounter is going strong - even if there have been several economic setbacks along the way: are we in another recession? still in a cost of living crisis? feeling the effects of the pandemic and Brexit (maybe a bit of a stretch)?   There have been so many successes so far. I won’t list them all… because they are really boring and might not represent success to you lot 🤣... however, the three key things that I think most could appreciate:   - I’ve hired some superstars, people I trust and value highly Tommy Tipping Julian Dela Cruz.... they have the world at their feet, and we’ve become great friends. - A lot of learnings! These have been applied quickly, in a new venture with the brilliant Frankie Fields… when setting up a 2nd business in Poland.   - What’s important has been redefined and I have a better understanding of what I want from my business and more importantly, my life!   🥳 a few brilliant outcomes if you ask me…. enough to say, starting up on my own was 100% the right decision. 🥳

For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity in action at the risk of life above and beyond the call of duty' ... These are the citations read before awarding an individual the medal of honor (MOH), the highest military decoration to Americans that have distinguished themselves. The catch phrase for me is 'above and beyond. That's peak performance. Now which one of your staff or colleagues can you strongly recommend to be given that star prize? As a staff, can you state categorically that you are going 'above and beyond'? Some key points to ponder for an employer would be: How do you; - Reward staff that are hitting those heights? - Retain your star performers? - Engage and motivate those that are not hitting those targets? The take away would be for us to continually strive to be the best that we can be putting in our hearts and minds to all that we do, professionally and personally. Star performers could also come from all cadres of the organisation, top - bottom and vice versa.

Flight Path to Success: Isaac Lee's Transition from Aviator to Executive From the heart of Lubbock, TX, to the skies as a commanding officer and aviator in the Marine Corps, Isaac Lee's journey is nothing short of inspirational. Joining the Marines in 1997, Isaac dedicated 20 years of his life, spanning seven deployments, to serving our country with unparalleled commitment and bravery. But Isaac's story doesn't end with his retirement from the Marines. It's just the beginning of another remarkable chapter. Adapting to change, he ventured into the world of business, where he is currently the Senior Vice President of Operations for a burgeoning private retail company, revolutionizing express car washes, gas, and convenience stores. With 23 locations thriving under his leadership and 11 more on the horizon for 2024, Isaac's impact on the industry is undeniable. Beyond the boardroom, Isaac continues to serve, lending his wisdom to the Marine Executive Association (MEA) and Support The Enlisted Project (STEP), and guiding future leaders through his business consulting practice. Yet, it's his upcoming memoir, 'Hangar 4,' that promises to unveil the raw and real essence of his military life, offering an unfiltered glimpse into the highs and lows of a hero's journey. Isaac is a fervent advocate for mental health support among veterans, drawing from his own experience of navigating the vast sea of post-military life. His philosophy? Focusing on "the situation, not a job," leveraging his skills to make a meaningful impact. Residing in San Diego, CA, Isaac's life outside the boardroom and beyond the base is filled with the joys of family time with his wife and two children, DIY projects, and the thrill of sports. His story is a testament to the power of resilience, adaptation, and finding one's purpose in every chapter of life. Let's celebrate Isaac Lee—a true leader, visionary, and advocate for change. Here's to more chapters in the incredible journey of a man who's flown the skies and now, making waves on the ground. 🚀🌊 👉 Find Isaac's full story via the link in comments below! #VeteranLeader #Inspiration #MilitaryToBusiness #MentalHealthAdvocate

Finish Strong Friday and Take in the 40,000 foot view of Your Successes! I love all things aviation and have already showcased numerous pilots and astronauts, but Charles Lindbergh has such an amazing story, and he has a great quote, "Life is like a landscape. You live in the midst of it, but can describe it only from the vantage point of distance." As a pilot, it's always easy to look down and get the big picture, but it's not always easy to do, when you're always in the business mix. So often we are always in the minutiae, that we might be missing opportunities on a larger scale. Every once in a while you should step back, take that 40,000 foot look down and examine your business / job / sales, and see if you can gain a new insight from that different perspective! You never know what kind of opportunities that will present themselves or have always been there, just not visible, that close. Charles Augustus Lindbergh (February 4, 1902 – August 26, 1974) was an American aviator and military officer. On May 20–21, 1927, he made the first nonstop flight from New York City to Paris, a distance of 3,600 miles, flying alone for 33.5 hours. His aircraft, the Spirit of St. Louis, was designed and built to compete for the $25,000 Orteig Prize for the first flight between the two cities. Although not the first transatlantic flight, it was the longest at the time by nearly 2,000 miles and the first solo transatlantic flight. It became known as one of the most consequential flights in history and ushered in a new era of air transportation between parts of the globe.
