Leading with authenticity lets your team stand true and fosters a sense of belonging.
When a leader is genuine and true to themselves, it encourages their team members to be their authentic selves as well. In doing so, it creates an environment where team members feel they truly belong and are valued for who they are. This promotes trust, transparency, and a sense of community within the team.

Embracing humility in leadership transforms power dynamics, fostering a culture of respect and collaboration.

Humble leaders listen, learn, and lift others up, proving that true strength lies in empowering those around them.

Let's celebrate leadership that prioritizes positivity and humility, and create environments where everyone can thrive.

Battle Ready isn’t automatic, it’s earned through dedicated preparation, and a culture of winning. We Surface Warriors are committed to seizing the present to ensure that, when called upon we will fight and win.

A positive attitude turns everyday tasks into team victories. 💪

Top-notch force protection training is the standard on O’KANE. Every sailor needs to be sharp, vigilant, and ready for any threat, anytime.

We’re live on Instagram!

Anchors Aweigh, USS PRINCETON (CG 59)! Wishing you smooth seas and a triumphant deployment. Our thoughts sail with you. Fair winds and following seas!

Enormous Gratitude to All Who Made Our BDOC Mentorship Social a Resounding Success! 🚀

A heartfelt thank you to our incredible mentors and volunteers, who dedicated their time and expertise to inspire and uplift our community. 🌟 A special shoutout to SWOBOSS and her husband WARCOM for opening their home to us and allowing SNA to host this unforgettable event.
