Veterati is activating one of history’s most powerful tribes: the military, and the 94% of Americans who support our military, to solve the greatest crisis of opportunity for 1.5m Veterans and 5.5m military spouses today: finding the right job. When we approached this crisis, we didn’t think about it traditionally. Our big insight was that 80% of jobs come through the people who believe in you: your Tribe.

Veterati is activating one of history’s most powerful tribes: the military, and the 94% of Americans who support our military, to solve the greatest crisis of opportunity for 1.5m Veterans and 5.5m military spouses today: finding the right job. When we approached this crisis, we didn’t think about it traditionally. Our big insight was that 80% of jobs come through the people who believe in you: your Tribe. So we asked a completely different question. “How do we connect Veterans to the people who believe in them? To the Tribe that will mentor, sponsor, and champion them to success after they come home from the battlefield?”
In comes Veterati - the only digital platform that allows business professionals to directly connect with veterans and military spouses in a very personal and direct way. Many transitioning service members, Veterans and military spouses are looking for advice, guidance and answers to common questions related to employment, education and entrepreneurship. Veterati is legitimizing the power of conversation and designed to make it easy and FREE for our heroes and the 100 million employed Americans who want to volunteer their time to talk and help them accelerate the path to career readiness, job leads and even real career opportunities.

How Masai Ujiri Is Using Basketball To Transform The Lives Of African Youth
Forbes
Growing up playing basketball in Africa, NBA Champion and Toronto Raptors Vice-Chairman and President, Masai Ujiri realized the abundance of talent in his homeland – but these players were often referred to as raw, lacking experience in the game and lacking access to coaching and facilities.
That’s why Masai founded Giants of Africa in 2003 – a non-profit organization that provides quality facilities, gear and coaches with the goal of empowering African youth through the power of sport. -

How To Travel The World During Covid-19
Forbes
I built a hack to travel around the world during Covid-19. I wrote this to share it with my fellow explorers around the world currently confined to their homes.
Before Covid-19, we were the ones who loved packing light, jumping on a plane. Or out of one. Landing in a new city. Choosing the dish on the menu we’re least familiar with. Delighting in a deep conversation with a stranger at a bar we’ve never been to before.
And there’s more than a billion of us. 1.4, to be exact: 1.4…I built a hack to travel around the world during Covid-19. I wrote this to share it with my fellow explorers around the world currently confined to their homes.

And there’s more than a billion of us. 1.4, to be exact: 1.4 billion people international travelers in 2018. To put that in perspective, in 1950, just 25 million people traveled internationally. Us explorers have exploded across the globe these last decades.

Scrolling Is The New Smoking
Forbes
Big Social Media sucks up 142 minutes of our time, daily.
But it’s not just a time suck. Big Social also has the same effect on our bodies as smoking 15 cigarettes a day.
Big Social doubles loneliness. Triples depression. Makes it harder to sleep. Leads to addiction, anxiety, and higher suicide rates.
Is it too late? Has Big Social Already Killed Conversation?
I’m an optimist and I think there’s still time for a revolution. -

This is the inspiration behind our annual Mighty 25: Influencers Supporting the Military Community in 2018 — a list of individuals who are making a difference for military service members, veterans, and their families.
This year, we expanded our list to include not just veterans, prior service members, and reservists, but also civilians who are doing exemplary work in this community.
The Mighty 25 Committee utilized a set of specific criteria to select 25 members of the military-veteran community currently making a significant impact. The committee was comprised of the diverse WATM team of veteran editors, writers, and creators who engage with this community daily. The task force conducted extensive research to identify over 100 initial potential candidates. The top 25 were chosen according to impact and the representation of a diverse variety of social causes, fields of work, and communities affected.
This individuals on this year's Mighty 25 have dedicated their lives to missions that vary greatly: from developing transitioning service members and their spouses into successful entrepreneurs, to helping veterans heal through stand-up comedy training. Yet these exceptional individuals all share one goal: to improve the lives of those who have sacrificed for their country.
