UW MBA Veterans present findings

Post 3063 had the honor of hosting a powerful presentation from a team of six incredible veteran MBA candidates from the University of Washington’s Foster School of Business on May 22 (video linked here!). Over the past academic quarter, this team has immersed themselves in our Post’s story: listening, learning, and leading a revitalization effort aimed at boosting member engagement and nurturing the next generation of leaders.

Through in-depth interviews, member surveys, and benchmarking against peer organizations, the team delivered clear, actionable recommendations to help us reconnect with our mission, energize our programming, and expand our community impact. Their findings highlighted the need for:
– A renewed mission and vision that resonates across generations,
– Stronger onboarding and mentorship for new members,
– A more consistent mix of social, service, and family-friendly events, and
– Expanded partnerships with local veteran and civic organizations.

This work is already helping shape a brighter future for Post 3063, and we’re excited to keep the momentum going. Stay tuned for a deeper dive into the full report and how we plan to turn insights into action.

Huge thanks to our partners at the UW Foster Veterans Association and to Audrey Hicks for bridging the connection. This is exactly what collaboration and veteran leadership look like in action!
