Does your company have a Military Veteran employee resource group (ERG)?

Whether you are a company seeking to attract military veteran talent or a military veteran looking for your next career this is a key question.

A Veteran ERG can be a huge "Force Multiplier" in attracting, hiring, and retaining military veterans. The most successful hiring events I have attended were the result of having Veterans ERG members in attendance representing our organization and telling their stories.

Veteran ERGs are also a vital resource for onboarding and mentorship for veterans, especially those that are newly transitioned.
They’re also a powerful tool to deepen internal connections and boost employee engagement.

Dianne Greene,'s recent article "Building and Fostering Employee Resource Groups" covers the business case for ERGs in attracting talent. Link in the comments below
