Maj. Stacie Shafran: "When I first came in the Air Force, it was tough to embrace this ecosystem and for people to feel like they could be vulnerable and they could have the courage to try something and now we really are encouraging people to do that."
Stacie Shafran is a public affairs officer with the Air Force Personnel Center and has been involved in the defense innovation ecosystem for a little while now and has attended at least one AFWERX Spark workshop. She recently completed the AFVentures fellowship in San Francisco and is heavily involved in the San Antonio entrepreneurial community. She is passionate about mental health and helping veterans heal.
In this episode, we discuss the culture changes happening within the Air Force and how leaders can encourage their teams to jump on board and try new ways of doing things. We also cover the role of public affairs to the innovation effort and ways that communicating your story helps other innovators continue on their own creative journeys.
