Are you more flexible because of the pandemic? - we’ve learned a lot about flexibility since then. Flexibility is almost instinctive for military members. We learn to bend and flex in response to the demands of the mission, whether it be training during peacetime or responses to domestic crises or combat. Flexibility is no longer “nice-to-have,” it’s a “must-have” in today’s talent market. As we continue to create our new normals and prepare for the workplace of tomorrow, Veteran employees are assets to be relied upon.

Do your new Veteran hires need encouragement and/or feedback? Because Veterans have a bias for action and tend to be task oriented, your new Veteran hire may lean in too quickly, making recommendations before co-workers are ready to hear them. For example, if they are in a meeting and have a great idea, they might say, “I think we should do this.” More than likely, everyone in the room will either a) shoot him/her down because it has been tried before and failed, b) dismiss him/her because they’re new and don’t know the business, or c) think it’s interesting but still dismiss him/her because you’re new. Please offer your new hire feedback. Veterans are used to receiving it, want to do the right thing, and respond well to coaching.
