You are a talented and experienced Military Equal Opportunity Advisor,
Equal Employment Opportunity Specialist,
or an overall top performer.
You have been a trail blazer by being a champion of individual dignity
and respect for all, across the total force.
Now, you are invited to chart an even brighter future
by becoming an instructor or staff member at the Center of Excellence
for human relations for the Department of Defense.
Welcome to the Defense Equal Opportunity Management Institute,
otherwise known as ‘DEOMI’.
DEOMI’s Mission is crucial in our Department of Defense mission
readiness and talent management.
I was first afforded the opportunity to join the DEOMI team
as a Navy Lieutenant.
My time then and now has truly been a game-changing
experience, both professionally and personally.
By delivering the training, tools,
and education in effective human relations,
DEOMI enables the promotion of signature behaviors
and the fostering of cultures of excellence DoD wide.
We must continue to strive to optimize the potential
of every individual so that our great
nation benefits from the strength of those contributions.
This is a true testament of the values of the entire DEOMI team
who reinforces that everyone has the innate right
to be treated with dignity and respect,
and afforded fair and equitable access to opportunities
and resources to reach their potential.
As the 18th Commandant of DEOMI, I was honored and privileged
to be a part of this phenomenal team
in support of such a noble mission.
Time and time again, DEOMI has proven itself
to be the DoD’s premier ever-increasingly effective,
agile, and adaptive force.
DEOMI’s transformation to a Center of Excellence will leverage more than
a half-century of expertise in the field of human relations with
cutting-edge learning innovations.
We invite you to be a part of DEOMI’s team of professionals.
If you genuinely want to make a huge impact and a difference,
please contact DEOMI’s Personnel and Student Services Department.
