info_outlineThis episode is in commemoration of Veterans Day. GTRI has a longstanding and deep partnership with the military community. More than 90% of GTRI's research awards come from the Department of Defense, the U.S. Air Force, the U.S. Army, the U.S. Marine Corps, and the U.S. Navy. Therefore, it is fitting that military-focused events and holidays are prominent on GTRI's calendar.
With Veterans Day around the corner, we wanted to talk through some leadership and mentoring questions from a female perspective. This podcast episode has been developed to help understand the "ins and outs" of professional development within the United States military, Georgia Tech, and GTRI.
The guest in this episode is Dr. Anne Clark – Chief Scientist with the Air National Guard Programs Division (ANGPD) at GTRI and a retired USAF colonel. She helps provide content to our world that we can use for better leadership guidance and professional opportunities.
We have developed some commonly asked questions derived from LinkedIn comments. In this recording, we will be attributing the questions to comments inspired by contributors from the LinkedIn platform to the individuals wanting to hear Dr. Clark’s perspective on this topic.
Below are the time stamps and contributors that best represent the question being asked.
