  From Military Service to Civilian Leadership: How Navy Discipline Translates to Business Results

  John Wiley, CEPA, CEO, Private Equity Strategist, Navy Veteran, Author, John Franklin Wiley

  The transition from military service to civilian leadership is one of the most underestimated challenges veterans face. It’s not about losing discipline – it’s about translating it. John Franklin Wiley served aboard nuclear submarines, where leadership under pressure wasn’t optional. After the Navy, John applied those same principles to build companies, lead nonprofits, and navigate private equity deals worth tens of millions. In this talk, he shares what military leadership actually looks like in the boardroom, the jobsite, and the small business – and why the skills veterans carry are exactly what today’s organizations need.

  Your audience will walk away with:
  • Three military leadership principles that directly translate to business
  • Why “command and control” isn’t what you think it is
  • How to leverage veteran discipline without losing civilian buy-in

  Ideal for veteran groups, civic organizations, Rotary and Kiwanis clubs, and any audience that values disciplined leadership.
