Career and Job transition – The Mentors Radio

In this episode, host Tom Loarie talks with guest mentor Ulrich Schmid-Maybach, whose great grandfather, Wilhelm Maybach, designed the first high-speed internal combustion engine in 1883 and the first Mercedes car in 1901. Today the Mercedes Maybach is known to the most elite of car enthusiasts worldwide; the ultra-luxury car starts at $168,600.

But this episode is not about luxury. It’s about super-innovation, building bridges from the past to the future, and mentoring others. Ulrich founded the Maybach Foundation in 2006 with the dual mission of honoring the history of ingenious designers and inventors Wilhelm and Karl Maybach and mentoring a new generation of innovators to follow their own inspirations. The Foundation’s motto is “Your best future is helping someone else find theirs.”

Find out why serving in the military is the greatest leadership development training one could hope for. Not easy. But invaluable in terms of self-discipline and leadership, skills that translate well into private sector leadership once you learn how to navigate the transition.

In this episode of THE MENTORS RADIO, Host Tom Loarie talks with two military veterans who have helped thousands make that transition from military to civilian work. These guests are George Randle—a U.S. Army veteran whose military assignments included the U.S. Army Berlin Brigade, US CENTCOM and III Corps with deployments to Africa, Central America and Guantanamo Bay, key leadership assignments including Platoon Leader, Executive Officer and Company Commander, and Mike Sarraille, a retired Navy SEAL whose medals include a Silver Star, six Bronze Stars, and a Purple Heart.

Randle and Sarraille continue to achieve outstanding success in helping veterans transition into private sector jobs that are well-suited to their military and leadership training, adaptability, individual strengths and passions.
