Experienced Leadership
Benefits of using a Veteran Owned Business
​In the military, the mission always comes first. A sense of urgency, duty and adaptability is instilled in military personnel from day one, and that carries over when they join the civilian workforce.
As the Department of Veteran Affairs notes, members of the armed forces are cross-trained in multiple skills, strategic problem solving, and they display strong follow-through on assignments. Therefore, hiring a veteran owned business often means working with a "dedicated team who has developed valuable teamwork, leadership and job skills."
Veterans are overwhelmingly viewed as having more positive attributes than the average employee. A 2016 "Veterans in the Workplace" study by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation found that 99% of small businesses see veterans as more or equally likely than non-veterans to be disciplined, punctual, team oriented, loyal and hard-working employees.
In short, the overall skills, values and work ethic veterans bring to a company can be a tremendous business advantage.
