Oh Yeah? Watch This! As a way of life!
With a humble but self-confident approach, Rear Admiral Ed Allen (ret), takes us on a life journey starting from a grass airfield where his efforts on the flight line would get him general aviation flight time to commanding a naval aircraft carrier group for the United States navy. With 31 years of military service followed by a civilian career, The Rear Admiral shares some of his military experiences in the most high-performance aircraft of the time, commanding teams in the most demanding of situations and how he leveraged his experiences to support the private sector following his military service. He provided leadership during the era of Top Gun and was recognized for his outstanding performance receiving both the “Tail Hooker of the year” and the “John Paul Jones” awards in the same year, an accomplishment few have accomplished. And you will learn a few of his life lessons to lead and live by that will resonate as the foundation for his success, and we will all come away with a greater understanding of his accomplishments. So come join us and hear why Oh Yeah? Watch This! Is a man worth hearing from!
