Here are details:

  • “Military Leadership Techniques Applied to Civilian Enterprise” – Two former military officers will recount their collective experiences as they relate to current challenges and opportunities in the civilian world.   What is it that makes the military so successful in some things and how can the very best practices In the uniformed services be adapted to serve us as civilians?   These and other topics will be addressed by this revealing presentation.
