Military leadership does not disappear after service, but it does require translation.
In this episode, John S. Berry sits down with Christopher McKinney, an Army Veteran, founder of OpSynergy, and program manager at Stratevia, to discuss how Veterans can successfully bridge the gap between military experience and civilian careers. Chris shares how earning professional certifications, particularly the Project Management Professional (PMP), helped him transition, advance quickly, and ultimately build a Veteran-focused business.
The conversation explores resume translation, professional credibility, leadership in corporate environments, and why Veterans should build base-level civilian skills before launching a business. Chris also explains how OpSynergy was created to ensure transitioning service members can earn certifications without financial barriers, and why doing “just a little more” than peers often sets Veterans apart. This episode offers practical, grounded advice for Veterans navigating transition, career growth, and entrepreneurship.
