At Max Fab Consulting, we understand that transitioning veterans into civilian employment is complex. Most non-veteran employers need to be adequately Vet READY, lacking the necessary tools to appreciate and harness the unique skills that veterans bring to the table.
Furthermore, we’ve recognized a concerning trend: the significant delay between when an individual takes on a leadership role, often around age 30, and when they finally receive formalized leadership training, typically by age 42. This delay is even more accentuated when discussing veterans transitioning to corporate leadership.
To address these gaps, we offer specialized Leadership Coaching and Development programs tailored for emerging leaders and companies striving to be Vet READY. These programs focus on executive growth and understanding the distinctive strengths of veterans.
As a proven subject matter expert in veteran transitions and leadership development, my team and I are committed to equipping leaders, both veterans and civilians, with the skills and insights needed to thrive. We are here to empower individuals and organizations, helping leaders transform challenges into opportunities.
