If I could do it over, I like to believe that I\u2019d find my way into their ranks. But then I catch myself, and ask the only question that really matters around Memorial Day: <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What can I do, right now, to honor those who gave their lives?<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s easy to offer verbal gratitude to those who have made the ultimate sacrifice. It\u2019s easy to observe a moment of silence and send thoughts and prayers. Turning that into an actionable, continual commitment to supporting those who have served \u2014\u00a0and supporting the families who have served them\u2014 is more of a challenge, but it\u2019s one worth meeting head-on.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For myself and the team at RingCentral, the way is clear: We want to honor fallen veterans by providing a stable career path to those who returned. Rather than just say thank you, we are committed to creating opportunities for them to use their myriad skills and hard-won experience in an environment where they\u2019ll be appreciated and supported.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Instant expertise<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I admire and respect those who have served for their competence, discipline, and commitment to mastery and results in a given field under extreme circumstances. Obviously, this makes them valuable and capable additions to any team from day one, and their positive value only grows from there. \u00a0 This isn\u2019t simply a matter of opinion, it\u2019s supported by data.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to LinkedIn\u2019s <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/socialimpact.linkedin.com\/programs\/veterans\/veteran-opportunity-report\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Veteran Opportunity Report<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Veterans remain with their initial company 8.3% longer than non-veterans<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Veterans are 39% more likely to be promoted earlier than nonveterans<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Veterans are 160% more likely\u00a0 to have a graduate degree or higher\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stanley Adamczyk, a Senior Contracts Manager at RingCentral, as well as a veteran on my legal team, says it better than I ever could.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cRingCentral is very welcoming to diverse groups, veterans among them,\u201d Stanley says. \u201cVeterans bring certain technical and life skills with them that can be adapted from a regimented environment to one where the culture is very fluid. RingCentral has so many opportunities to offer to veterans, and veterans in turn are able to seize those opportunities to make a difference in their contributions to successfully accomplish the company\u2019s goals.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I\u2019m never going to stop beating this drum; I\u2019m passionate and driven in my belief that it\u2019s our basic responsibility to not just offer veterans a job, but a true career-culture environment that helps them flourish. But, of course, Memorial Day isn\u2019t just about the veterans who were fortunate enough to come back home and embark on a new chapter. Our obligations include paying respect to those who sadly can\u2019t be here with us today, as well as their families.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Showing respect, paying respect<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As part of our Memorial Day remembrance, RingCentral is matching employee donations 2:1 to qualifying veterans and military organizations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On top of the campaign drive, we\u2019re also hosting a webinar that will feature stories from our own US Veteran Employees in their own words (as it should be).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This year, I wanted to challenge myself, and my teammates at RingCentral, and our industry to do more than let this day of national remembrance slip by on the calendar. Our commitment to those who risk everything so that we may live free must be demonstrated through actions, not just words, year-round.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Military service, and the personal sacrifice and responsibility that comes along with it, is something I\u2019ve respected for as long as I can remember.
