The Reinforce Difference: Turning Service Experience into Business Strength
Leadership Built Through Service
In service, leadership is intrinsic at all levels. Veterans and First Responders have experience working within and leading teams that work together to achieve goals. They understand intent, are mission and task focused, and have an expectation to up-skill and grow their knowledge (even annually on professional courses). Leading by example, Veteran and First Responders leaders are expected to delegate, motivate, inspire, and deliver results, often in austere and challenging conditions.
Problem Solving and Critical Thinking
Veterans and First Responders are often in unknown situations where they are required to analyse data, assess potential outcomes, and use situational awareness to solve issues and react to challenges. They are adaptable, flexible, and trained across a breadth of skills and, as a result, are not fearful of taking on responsibilities and tasks outside their primary role. They have been trained in decision making processes highly adaptable to the commercial industry.
Values Driven Thinking
Veterans and First Responders have fought and served for their values. They seek out higher meaning in what they do, and align to purposeful work where they can make a difference for good. They thrive in teams, and understand the importance of trust, respect, and structure. They will hold themselves and others to account for their actions, ensuring they are aligned to your values.
Risk Management Mindset
Veterans and First Responders are trained in practical risk-mitigation strategies that ensure safety and mission success in all activities. They utilise rigorous systems to prepare, rehearse, communicate, deliver, assess, and improve each activity they conduct.
Effective Communication
Clear, concise and accurate communications are vital for the effective operation of the Australian Defence Force and Emergency Services. Veterans and First Responders can identify, articulate, and share relevant information using well-developed communication skills, via a myriad of media. They are respectful and efficient, and nest higher levels of intent into their communications ensuring the entire team are empowered to seize initiative.
Most Veterans and First Responders already hold Cert IV-level or higher qualifications in Business, Leadership, and Operations.
