Profile bio

About Sean D. Johnson

Successful missions require two very powerful forces: creativity and resourcefulness - that is what I provide as an early-adopter of new techniques and new solutions to old problems. My final military role afforded me the opportunity to on-board cutting edge technologies across the entire cross-functional range of a 4,000 person Air Force unit. Actively engaging with private industry was a daily blessing which required me to develop and utilize my technological literacy and problem solving abilities; positioning me positively towards a transition to civilian life. My decisions have and will have a global impact and working hand-in-hand with military professionals and industry leaders was a dream come true. Paths to success are rarely straight and my flexibility engaging challenges has produced a 10 year long track record of changing the US Air Force and foreign allies for the better. Over the past 10 years, I have led teams ranging from 20 to 300 personnel leveraging my experience in developing clear strategies, providing innovative and targeted training, and maintaining standards compliance to achieve organizational success. As a veteran, university professor, and a business owner, I know the importance of communication, quick response, and collaboration. I will work with you to develop comprehensive solutions implementation and represent my team and partners to the fullest.

Competitive selection for an innovation consulting fellowship with BMNT allowed me to apply new and old skills in an environment tailored to drive results with federal entities and small business.

My work with BMNT was paradigm changing and I’m grateful for the opportunity.
