  • Episode 0 - Introducing the Corporate Captains Podcast
    2019/04/03
    The Corporate Captains Podcast is a show hosted by two former military officers, Brent Nichols (me) and Jay Adams, talking about all things career transition from active duty to business. My background is in the Air Force and Jay was in the Marines; both of us spent years working through the decision to get out of the military. After just over a decade of service, we're just a few short months removed from being in the uniform and we've learned a ton through the process. In a lot of ways, we are still working through the transition.   As we made our way through the biggest career transition of our lives, we realized there were going things we wish knew and conversations we wish we'd had, but the truth is, you don't know any better until in the midst of it. The transition has been an exciting, yet humbling, experience for both us. Jay and I want to share what we learned and help other officers considering getting out to transition well. Over the course of 9 to 10 episodes (hopefully more!), we take the gloves off to tell the whole story on what it's like to transition before making it to the magical 20 years and how we made the most of our own transition.   If you're a young military officer considering the transition, check out a few episodes, let us know what you think, and we invite you to be part of the conversation.   As you dig into the content, we want to hear from you.

  • Episode 4 - The Leadership Plateau
    2019/05/24

    Early in their career, military officers start in a leadership sprint, launching past their civilian peers, but after 6 or 7 years, leadership development begins to taper off & they start to make up ground.

  • Episode 6 - We're Joined by a Military Officer Recruiting Legend
    2019/09/03

    In this episode, we talk to Pete Van Epps from Cameron Brooks. Pete is a recruiter, sure, but the reason we were excited to talk to him goes far beyond his profession as a recruiter.

    Pete speaks the language of the military officers AND business/corporate America as well as anyone we've met in our own transition, and his insight into the transition is truly unique. There's a little something for every officer in this episode, regardless of where you are in the transition.

  • Episode 7 - Building the Non-Military Resume
    2019/11/09

    In this episode, we tackle non-military resume bullets. As military officers, we know the drill. Chase bullets, get the OPR in shape and be sure to lock in a good stratification. Building the military resume is the easy part, it's natural for good officers, but it's difficult to figure out what steps are worth taking when it comes to knowing what bullets to add prior to the transition into business or corporate America

    Should you go get your MBA or PMP? What professional certifications are worth your time, if any? We talk about our experience and what ultimately matters.
