Background

About Dave Rothgery

As a retired Senior Chief Operations Specialist (E8) with 25 years of honorable service in the U.S. Navy, I have built a career with strong leadership, effective team management, and a deep commitment to professional development. My experience spans strategic and operational levels, focusing on mentoring personnel, improving processes, and cultivating high-performing teams. I’ve led diverse groups in dynamic, high-pressure environments, developed and implemented training programs, and guided individuals to reach their fullest potential. My leadership style emphasizes accountability, communication, and mission-focused collaboration—principles that consistently enhance team cohesion and operational efficiency. Now transitioning to the civilian sector, I’m seeking leadership, operations, or training roles where I can continue to apply these values and experiences to help organizations build capable teams and drive measurable results.
