It's not easy for military, because the civilian world doesn't understand just how much they go through and what they learned.

A friend of mine is looking to start a non-profit career counseling organization to help soldiers transition back to the workplace. Sounds like she should look into Emily and this organization. Sean Hi Mark,

Great post and couldn’t come at a better time. A friend of mine is looking to start a non-profit career counseling organization to help soldiers transition back to the workplace. Sounds like she should look into Emily and this organization.

It's rare for me to gush in my endorsement of a single person but I think that Emily is a rare find. Plus, the work that SHRM has started in this area should be applauded. We have a long way to go but we're making progress. @Debbie, Laura, Elisabeth, Eric and Mike – Thanks for the comments!

We worked together at Booz Allen Hamilton and she's the first contact I seek when looking for content expertise on the military/civilian culture gap. Thanks, Mark; for shining a light on the important work she has done and continues to do. Emily has been a good friend and trusted colleague of mine for years now.
