Develop Leaders in the Society. The students in our organization have done a tremendous job of establishing leadership opportunities for students nationally through the student chapters. Next, we need to expand student chapters to outside the United States and sustain those current chapters. In order to help sustain these chapters, we need Early Career Psychologists (ECPs), as well as members and Fellows, to lend their mentorship. Throughout the Society, senior leaders need to mentor students and ECPs to the next level of leadership. For students and ECPs, the Society has developed a model leadership program to establish a pipeline of young leaders to expand our presence as the international leader in military psychology. To learn about or to start a student chapter please contact Jourdin Navarro, to become engaged as ECP mentor contact Neil Shortland and for more information on the Society Leadership Program contact Maurice Sipos.
Build Strategic Partnership.Building strong alliances with other enterprises and entities is important in order to mobilize and move forward on important issues regarding military psychology and psychology, as well as to further all those in the Society supporting veterans, families, and the military community. Members will be appointed as liaisons to organizations and serve as ambassadors moving forward our strategic plan. Through partnerships, we can support, and advance military psychology’s cutting-edge information provided to the public and other enterprises through symposia, conferences, media events, and other public forums. To become a liaison or ambassador contact NaTasha Jordan.
Promote Military Psychology. In order to further promote military psychology, mini think tank pods will be established to identify education and/or policy areas to advocate on behalf of military psychology. These small groups are being identified in the Society to be proactive in education, policy, and/or advocacy to educate the public. To start or become a member of a mini think tank pods, contact NaTasha Jordan.
