That\u2019s why this week, approximately 40 active-duty members of the special operations community will attend the foundation\u2019s two-day seminar in Fort Walton Beach, Florida.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The seminar is part of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/education-transition\/2020\/10\/23\/operating-at-home-how-to-make-sof-troops-transition-to-civilian-life-easier\/\" target=\"_blank\">Global SOF Foundation\u2019s<\/a> Special Air Warfare Symposium, running from Feb. 22 to Feb. 24.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While the two-day seminar is much shorter than The Honor Foundation\u2019s typical three-month program, Stevens says it\u2019s essential to begin the transition process as soon as possible. Further, Stevens hopes that those attending the two-day seminar will eventually sign up for the more extended three-month program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cYou aren\u2019t going to get everything you know in two days,\u201d Stevens said. \u201cBut, we really want to expose these folks to what they need to start thinking about to have a successful transition. The earlier they can do it, the better they\u2019re going to be prepared.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Stevens spent 26 years on active duty as a Navy SEAL and successfully transitioned from the military to the private sector in 2017. After a stint in business, he took over as the CEO of The Honor Foundation in 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Stevens says finding your \u201cwhy\u201d during the transition process is of the utmost importance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe folks have to think deeply about what their \u2018why\u2019 is, what their purpose on the planet is,\u201d Stevens said. \u201cBecause it gets a little less clear when you take the uniform off.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to Stevens, a sense of purpose is effectively issued to servicemembers when in the military. They\u2019re used to having a mission and serving a higher purpose. However, at some point, every servicemember leaves this military and finding what drives an individual is a key to success when the uniform comes off for the last time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe whole transition piece wasn\u2019t really clear to them,\u201d Richard Lamb a retired Army command sergeant major and current military liaison for the Global SOF Foundation, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/education-transition\/2021\/09\/16\/only-29-percent-of-sof-troops-find-military-transition-program-helpful-survey\/\" target=\"_blank\">told<\/a> Military Times in September.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lamb\u2019s comments followed a Global SOF survey in which only 29 percent of transitioning SOF members found the Defense Department\u2019s Transition Assistance Program \u201chelpful.\u201d A further 90 percent of those surveyed said that DoD should design a TAP specifically for the SOF community. According to Lamb, a significant part of the transition process is starting it early so that soon the to-be civilians have enough time to adjust to the demands of civilian life and land on their feet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cBecause if you wait till the guy\u2019s 24 months out [to begin TAP],\u201d Lamb said, [The service member] may decide tomorrow, I\u2019m getting out in 90 days, then you\u2019re way behind the power curve.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Stevens also says that those exiting the military from the SOF community have a more challenging time doing so. Another aspect to this transition, says Stevens, is that military personnel tie their identity to their job in the military. Identity, according to Stevens, is not a bad thing, and it just needs contextualization for success in the private sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cYour identity is always going to be tied to what you were doing [in the military],\u201d Stevens said. \u201cBut, it\u2019s not going to define you moving forward. It should be a strength for growth, but it shouldn\u2019t be \u2018I was a SEAL or a Marine Raider and the best years are behind me.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Those years spent serving in some of the military\u2019s most elite units should be a \u201cleverage point,\u201d says Stevens. In particular, it\u2019s the mindset that servicemembers applied to get into SOF units and endure harsh deployments with an unrelenting operational tempo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cUse that, but then move forward,\u201d Stevens said. \u201cAnd find your next Elysium.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After helping servicemembers figure out their \u201cwhy,\u201d the next step is to focus on how to get hired in the civilian world. While there is focus on what Stevens calls \u201ctactical tools\u201d such as building a resume, navigating LinkedIn, and salary negotiation, Stevens says the most important piece is \u201cbuilding out the narrative.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOne of the things a lot of us in the military don\u2019t like to do is talk about ourselves,\u201d Stevens said. \u201cBut you have to develop that narrative about what value you\u2019re going to bring to a company or investors.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Stevens says that he hopes the two days of assistance that The Honor Foundation provides will drive attendees to attend the whole course and make them hungry to succeed in the private sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe want them to have a graceful landing that\u2019s successful, versus a hard [parachute landing fall],\u201d Stevens said. \u201cYou don\u2019t want a crappy landing. You want a smooth one.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Honor Foundation is running a two-day seminar for SOF servicemembers as they prepare to navigate leaving the military.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":88547,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-noindex":"","_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-nofollow":"","_yoast_wpseo_canonical":"","_acf":"","_yoast_wpseo_primary_category":7,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","_smg_distribution_targets":[]},"categories":[101,7,23,89,12,26,62],"tags":[],"coauthors":[3328],"class_list":["post-74208","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-daily-news-roundup","category-education-transition","category-home","category-middle-column","category-news","category-newsletters","category-pentagon-congress"],"acf":{"subheadline":"","legacy_arc_id":"I24MOEJFAFHKHL3BQES2ZYEMF4","arc_canonical_url":"\/education-transition\/2022\/02\/22\/honor-foundation-helps-sof-veterans-land-on-their-feet\/","remove_feature_photo":false,"is_sponsored":false,"subtype":"","redirect_url":"","disable_inline_ads":false,"native_logo_pretext":"Presented By:"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.0 (Yoast SEO v28.1) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Honor Foundation helps SOF veterans land on their feet - Navy Times<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The Honor Foundation is running a two-day seminar for SOF servicemembers as they prepare to navigate leaving the military.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"noindex, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Honor Foundation helps SOF veterans land on their feet\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The Honor Foundation is running a two-day seminar for SOF servicemembers as they prepare to navigate leaving the military.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/navytimes\/education-transition\/2022\/02\/22\/honor-foundation-helps-sof-veterans-land-on-their-feet\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Navy Times\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2022-02-22T19:45:37+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2026-08-08T14:56:52+00:00\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"James R.
