As military members, professionals at arms, reintegrate back into the civilian workforce, they’re told X things to do in their 3-day transition class.
Things like “Write a resume”, “Target your resume”, “Find a mentor”, and “Stop speaking military/your military occupation”.
They’re well meaning indeed, and heck, even necessary. But often lacking in detail how to do them. Instruction.
That’s why I wrote How To Speak Civilian Fluently!, a book that walks the reader through these things, along with how to translate your military occupation experience into the capability to solve problems in their environments, the key to a successful reintegration. It helps the military veteran and the organization that hires them. It enhances competitive advantage, productivity, and profitability for the organization, and self-esteem, confidence, mission and purpose, and positive mental health for the veteran.
