How is your book helping others?
Every year, 200k veterans leave the military - most of whom are unprepared for the transition. These service members have developed incredible leadership, problem-solving, and practical skills that are underutilized once they reach the civilian world, a detriment to both themselves and society. Mission Transition expertly fills this gap in support, enabling these national heroes to find full employment in optimal career fields, which - studies show - has the effect of nearly doubling their career earnings, rates of retention, and job satisfaction. Moreover, full employment is also directly correlated to suicidality in the post-9/11 veteran cohort. Put simply, this book saves lives!
