William Branum is a highly decorated Navy SEAL veteran who served in the United States military for 26 years. During his extensive military career, he

honed his leadership skills, cultivated a strong mindset, and gained invaluable experience in high-pressure situations as a sniper instructor, leading teams on operations ranging from protecting the interim Iraqi elected officials to direct action missions in Baghdad and Afghanistan as well as undersea missions that were required to be approved by the President of the United States. After retiring from the military, William has made it his mission to share the lessons he learned with others as a speaker, author, and business, and leadership advisor.

William’s expertise in leadership and mindset has been sought after by organizations ranging from small Universities to Fortune 500 companies. He draws on his experiences to provide practical advice on how to cultivate a leadership style that inspires and motivates others, and how to develop the resilience needed to succeed in challenging environments.

Through his work, William continues to inspire individuals and organizations to embrace the qualities that have made him a successful leader: discipline,

dedication, and a willingness to push beyond one's

limits.
