This week, Joe sits down with Navy Veteran, coach, consultant, and speaker, Jay Patterson. Jay, who enlisted in the Navy post-high school, served in the submarine force. After receiving a sudden 30-day notice of his military career's end, he swiftly scheduled interviews across the country.
Jay candidly discusses the challenges he encountered during his transition, including the lack of a traditional degree to complement his extensive experience. He explains how his natural problem-solving abilities led him to consulting and coaching. Jay now helps leaders develop crucial soft skills and underscores the indispensable role of people in business success.
