Mayvin, Inc.’s Post

Some people like to make a year end post that focuses on the year that passed. Some chose to wax poetic about the coming year and be optimistic about what may happen. Consider me part of the latter. I am excited about what will come in 2024: New business ideas. Career moves. Graduation from the The University of Chicago Booth School of Business. Additionally, I continue to be excited about helping fellow veterans. Through our work at the Chicago Marines Foundation we support many different fantastic organizations that help #veterans. Personally, I love helping people who are in a position that I used to be in, or can benefit from knowledge that I have. So: - Reach out to me if you need help transitioning out of the military. - Reach out if you are a veteran looking to start your own business. - Reach out if you are a veteran looking to attend a #m7 #business school (or any school that has rigorous admissions requirements) - Connect with me if you want to help veterans in need in the Chicago area or discuss entrepreneurial ideas. I look forward to all the growth that will happen in 2024. I want you to be a part of that journey - reach out if I can help you reach your targets and let’s make meaningful connections that can benefit career growth. #leadership #veteransinbusiness #entrepreneurship #marines

Attention Employers: VETERANS ARE ADEPT AT SKILLS TRANSFER ACROSS CONTEXTS AND TASKS "The ability to recognize and act on opportunities to transfer skills learned in a specific context, to a disparate context, represents a valuable organizational resource. Several studies focused on skills transfer have highlighted that military service members and veterans are particularly skilled in this ability. Research has attributed this finding to the fact that military training most often includes contingency and scenario-based pedagogy, and as a result service members and veterans develop cognitive heuristics that readily facilitate knowledge/skills transfer between disparate tasks and situations." IVMF, Syracuse University, "Revisiting The Business Case for Hiring Veterans." This is a unique superpower many veterans possess, coupled with high value learning agilities, that when applied to your most pressing business challenges, amazing things can happen. The #veteranreadyplaybook represents a new standard in employer excellence that helps you map this value, improving your organizational performance, and in turn, growing your revenue over time. Ask me how. #Leadership #Innovation #Entrepreneurship #Business #veteranready

🔹 Staying up to date with DoD priorities 🔹 As advisors, it is our responsibility to study the evolving needs of the Defense sector. The stream of innovations we encounter through clients, conferences, and personal exploration never ceases to amaze us; even so, helping our clients succeed in this dynamic industry is essential. Strategies - Army You may have caught our Director of Defense Sector, LTG Guy C. Swan, at the 2023 AUSA conference. Aside from attending this impressive 3-day conference with 33,000+ attendees and 650+ exhibitors, Gen. Swan (Ret.) also enjoys reading publications about Defense, blogs, and news articles. He stays knowledgeable about world affairs and the role of our military. As a member of several trade associations, he stays in the loop about the DoD’s ever-changing needs. Strategies - Air Force Our Strategic Advisor Lt. Gen. Chris Nowland (Ret.) also embraces this “lifelong learner” outlook. After 33 years in the Air Force, he is now a senior mentor, exchanging lessons and experiences with 1- and 2-star Generals. Teaching classes not only expands his knowledge of how this industry evolves but also allows him to hear valuable stories from his colleagues. He continues to attend exercises and maintains a daily information feed from diverse sources, friends, and colleagues, keeping him well-informed about his profession and the evolving global landscape. Our commitment to staying updated on the DoD's evolving needs ensures Victory Six can consistently provide exceptional service and help clients effectively navigate this dynamic industry. #VictorySix #AdvisoryFirm #BusinessStrategy #GovernmentRelations #GovernmentAffairs #DealFlow #DueDiligence #ManagementAdvisory #InvestmentAdvisory #BusinessAdvisory #DoD

Join Lucas Marino, D. Eng., PMP ( USCG Ret) for an 11-minute highlight from his general session at the 2023 Community of Human and Organizational Learning conference. Lucas shares his experience of 20 years in the military and the civilian world's different thought processes towards training. What does your ideal workforce look like? Will you hire or train for that? #organizationallearning #humanperformance #monthlylearningopportunities #communityresources #humanandorganizationalperformance #hop #recommendedbooks #ourrecommendations

Employers: VETERANS HAVE AND LEVERAGE ADVANCED TECHNICAL TRAINING "Military experience, on average, exposes individuals to highly advanced technology and technology training at a rate that is accelerated relative to non-military, age-group peers. Research validates the suggestion that this accelerated exposure to high-technology contributes to an enhanced ability to link technology-based solutions to organizational challenges, and also the transfer of technological skills to disparate work-tasks. In other words, not only do military veterans (on average) have more advanced exposure to high-technology relative to their age-group peers, but they also make the most of that knowledge by effectively leveraging knowledge across disparate work-related tasks." IVMF, Syracuse University, "Revisiting The Business Case for Hiring Veterans." Again, another unique superpower many veterans possess. When you couple their learning agilities with the more "advanced exposure to high-technology" environments, employers begin to see this differentiated value and invest accordingly. The #veteranreadyplaybook represents a new standard in employer excellence that helps you map this value, improving your organizational performance, and in turn, growing your revenue over time.
