If you want to go fast, go alone.
If you want to go far, go together
-Dr. Harold Lee III, Owner
“I recognized that some people lack access to networks and knowledge needed to succeed in the workforce and advance their careers.”
Our Value
First, we offer a vast network comprised of individuals from diverse sectors, including all branches of the U.S. military and special operations, the U.S. Department of Energy National labs, corporate giants like Northrop Grumman, Intel, and Micron, as well as academia and government entities such as the intelligence community. We understand that networking holds greater significance than education at advanced career stages, making a strong network essential.
Secondly, we offer mentorship. We believe that, without mentorship, individuals may squander considerable time navigating their career paths. The guidance obtained from mentorship is vital for success, particularly for those aiming to advance in their careers.
Third, we offer professional development training that covers interviewing, public speaking, networking, and dressing appropriately. We advocate for dressing in a way that reflects how you'd like to be perceived, emphasizing that presentation goes beyond just what’s on your computer. Our goal is to share the knowledge and insights we've gained over the years with our customers, helping them achieve success more quickly and understand the dynamics of various areas in the workforce.
Finally, we assist individuals in discovering their desired career paths. From our experience, many people feel uncertain about their choices, often due to a wide array of interests or a lack of awareness about available options. We offer insights that can guide them towards the right direction, ensuring they reach their goals promptly and effectively.
