Leadership Conference on Mentorship<\/h1>\n

The 2020 Naval Academy Leadership Conference was held January 20-23 at the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis and was attended by the largest group yet from MMA, including Commandant of Midshipmen, Capt. John Cashman.<\/p>\n

The group included a dozen midshipmen that comprise much of the new wedge (regiment leaders) along with advisor and Company Officer, Lt. Trevor Snow.<\/p>\n

MMA has attended this annual conference for many years, and the theme of this year\u2019s event was Invest in Your People: The Power of Mentorship.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe theme was particularly appropriate and timely,\u201d says Snow, \u201csince a primary responsibility of our 2\/C midshipmen who will be sailing on the next cruise is training and mentorship of 4\/C midshipmen.\u201d<\/p>\n

The conference featured a mix of speakers, panels, and breakout sessions. The breakout sessions, each of which was moderated by a Naval Academy cadet, followed speakers and panels and allowed small groups to meet and discuss the material that had been presented.<\/p>\n

MMA midshipmen were able to socialize and network with other conference participants at meal times and a more informal social event on the last night of the conference.
\nOne panel discussed \u201cMentors on the Battlefield\u201d and included three Medal of Honor recipients.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere was tremendous value for midshipmen to hear from others in leadership positions a lot of the same messaging that we work on in the Regiment\u201d says Snow. \u201cHaving a General, Admiral, Medal of Honor recipient, or head of a major corporation express and highlight the basic tenets of leadership like taking care of your people, the power of listening as a leadership tool, or the need to simply be involved with your people, validates what we all teach at MMA.\u201d\u2588<\/span><\/p>\n
