Monday brings us to Veterans Day, a day to honor and thank the brave men and women who have proudly served in our U.S. Armed Forces. Veterans are the very best this country has to offer and we're thankful for their service and sacrifice both during and after their service to our Country. Be sure to thank our veterans on Monday and remember their brave sacrifices that keep this nation free.

I am also excited to share that our next group of professionals and leaders are set to begin their learning journey. As we transition from learners to leaders, I want to share a thought. Leading is an honor, it is a commitment to each other. A culture of trust, compassion, commitment, and honor is truly a foundation of strength for Veterans Trading Company. I have all the confidence our team will continue to demonstrate these qualities every day, and they will be a fundamental element of our company’s culture. An experience all our customers will get to enjoy with us.??

Veterans Trading Company (VTC) would like to share with our LinkedIn followers the commitment we have made in the development and growth of our company’s leaders and professionals. Certainly, each employee brings value to the company through their own education and experiences. By launching a leadership program, we are ensuring that each employee is given the opportunity to hone their skills, learn from others and build a sustainable team and culture that we are proud to share with our customers through our business relationships. This month, we will wrap up the inaugural class of our Leadership Development Program for VTC leaders. We have spent the last fourteen months sending 12 senior leaders through an in-depth training series facilitated by Talent Strategy Coach, @Craig Lloyd of @Tony Wiseman Strategies. In this program, our leaders participated in bi-monthly training sessions, covering important management topics, such as: ·??????Leadership Self-awareness ·??????Time Management ·??????Coaching for Better Performance ·??????Change Management ·??????Effective Meetings ·??????And more… Between sessions, each leader received one-on-one coaching, specifically focusing on action items from the training session. The team members also worked monthly assignments in smaller groups to maintain accountability and learn from each other. ?These monthly assignments focused on reinforcing through assignments, all the learning from the larger group sessions as well as building an aligned culture among the team. Over 14 months, our senior leaders have honed their skills, developed meaningful habits, and built stronger relationships with their teams and peers. We are so excited for the next round of VTC professionals to go through this program, starting in August of this year. Here is what Craig Lloyd had to say about this program, “We believe the key to being a great leader is having a strong foundation of functional management skills. We’ve developed a program that uses people-data as a backdrop for understanding what drives individual leadership, then we apply that knowledge to specific topics that have a direct impact on the way they manage their teams. Our program has a proven track record of increasing skills and providing the tools for successful leadership.”

Congratulations to our VTC team for another outstanding year of Professional Procurement fulfillment services with BAE. Always a great pleasure to recognize excellence in execution of our team.

A Message from VTC President, George Smith: As we head into this holiday weekend, I want to share some thoughts for us all to remember.?Memorial Day is day set aside to honor those who have lost their lives serving in the U.S. Military. We have so much on our minds today, but I ask you to pause and take the time to be thankful for those who have died while protecting your freedom, the lifestyle you chose and those privileges you practice. The U.S. Military lives lost have collectively contributed to those freedoms. Without them, you would not be enjoying the lifestyle you have. Keep them in your thoughts and prayers today and always. And as always, I hope you enjoy time with your family and friends this holiday weekend. From the Veterans Trading Company Family, we share our Thank You to those who gave their lives so we can live freely.
