This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. With wisdom gained from 35 years of military
service, James L. Herdt argues that veterans are an underutilized resource, with much to offer not only employers but communities.


James L. Herdt retired from the US Navy after 35 years of military service as the 9th Master Chief Petty Officer -- the highest enlisted rank attainable. Together, with peers from the four other military branches, he co-created Pinnacle Five, an organization dedicated to reframing perception of veterans' potential once they've returned from active duty. James is the CEO of Herdt Consulting.

He is "triple qualified" (authorized to wear the Enlisted Aviation Warfare Specialist, Enlisted Surface Warfare Specialist, and Enlisted Submarine Warfare Specialist breast insignias); certified as a Master Training Specialist; and serves on the board of the U.S. Navy Memorial, the Association of the United States Navy (AUSN) Board and
the Florida Institute of Technology (FIT) Alumni Board.


About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
