Gen. Casey's Words On Transition

Good morning everyone!
I have a real treat for you. Hiring America worked in conjunction with Working Nation to cover a Town Hall meeting with Gen. George Casey (Ret), 36th Chief of Staff of the Army. I actually had the honor of participating in a Town Hall meeting with Gen Casey when I was still serving and always felt he was a very wise man. I hope you will enjoy his Words on Transition this week. He addresses being a part of the military team vs. an individual in a corporation, being just a "Cog" in a machine and being seen as a hero.
If you stay tuned after the 6 minute mark you can listen to other remarks from John Courson, CEO of the Home Builders Institute; Jeff Hall, National Employment Director of DAV; Jeff Cleland, Manager of Veterans Initiatives at the Bush Institute and Nicole Gardner, VP and Leader PS Eminence Academy, IBM Global Business Services. There are some great thoughts, programs and hard hitting questions discussed in this episode. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Thanks everyone for all the great feedback on the last newsletter on working remotely! I really appreciated from everyone. Apparently I struck a chord. If you didn't get to read it yet, you can check it out here. See you all next week!
