โ€œThe greatest gift we can give to the next generation is the gif of a great exampleโ€ โ€ฆ โ€œNever Destroy a young persons dream by telling them what they canโ€™t doโ€

After 34 years of service Bruce is most proud of the relationships heโ€™s built and the joy he feels from mentoring others.

He reminds us not to rob ourselves of a wealth of knowledge that may exist outside of our own perception.ย  โ€œSurround yourself with people who look, think, and feel differently from youโ€

Lean in and hear his journey from being a teenager in Columbia SC in the 70โ€™s to later becoming the CIO of the United States Army. What he thought would be a short career turned into become a Ranger, traveling the World, learning to be a Leader and building mental #resilience by being part of something bigger than himself.

One person saw something in him when he couldnโ€™t see it in himself and instilled a passion for people. That one determined leader changed the trajectory of multiple generations with their generosity and set Bruce on a path to a gratifying life.

ย Bruce gives us an honest account of his own experience with #militarytransitionย  and the 3 Major phases of exiting and finding a career for the next person preparing to transition.
