Dana Pittard serves as the vice president of defense programs for Allison Transmission in Indiana, where he oversees initiatives in more than 110 countries. A former US Army officer, Dana Pittard maintains membership with several military associations. These include the Association of the United States Army (AUSA), a nonprofit that supports national security and advances efforts benefitting men and women in service.
Among the organization’s goals is the education of its members, industry, the public, and Congress on the nature and characteristics of land warfare through its Institute of Land Warfare (ILW) program. The ASUA and the ILW’s efforts to advance this objective include the annual Global Force Symposium & Exposition, which promotes professional development and explores the future of innovation. Presentations and panel discussions review Army Operating Concept capabilities and address such topics as acquisition processes, military and industry partnerships, and research and development.
In addition to its main programming, the symposium features a variety of special events for young and established professionals. The American Freedom Foundation will also return in 2019 to host the Warriors to the Workforce career fair, which is part of a nationwide initiative to find employment for veterans, transitioning military-service personnel, and the spouses of service members. Participants can meet with potential employers, engage in job interviews, and receive feedback on creating an effective resume.
The 2019 AUSA Global Force Symposium and Exposition will take place in Huntsville, Alabama March 26-29. For details on registration, visit www.ausameetings.org/globalforce2019.
