Our very special guest, joining us in person, is Admiral William H. McRaven, retired United States Navy Four-Star Admiral and former Navy SEAL.

Admiral McRaven graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a degree in journalism and received his commission as a Navy SEAL officer in 1977. Throughout his illustrious career, he held various command positions, including leading a SEAL team and overseeing special operations in Iraq and Afghanistan.

One of Admiral McRaven's most notable achievements came as the commander of Joint Special Operations Command where he played a crucial role in Operation Neptune Spear. His strategic and tactical acumen earned him widespread praise and further solidified his reputation as a top military leader.

Admiral McRaven later served as the ninth commander of the United States Special Operations Command from 2011 to 2014, overseeing all U.S. special operations forces. During his tenure, he continued to advocate for the importance of special operations forces in addressing global security challenges.

In addition to his military service, Admiral McRaven is known for his academic achievements. He holds a Master's degree from the Naval Postgraduate School and a Doctor of Philosophy degree from the University of Texas.

After retiring from the military, Admiral McRaven became a prominent speaker, author, and educator. He gained widespread recognition for his inspiring commencement address at the University of Texas in 2014, which later became a bestselling book titled "Make Your Bed: Little Things That Can Change Your Life...And Maybe the World."

Admiral McRaven's leadership philosophy, strategic insights, and dedication to service have left a lasting impact on the U.S. military and continue to inspire individuals in countless fields.
