The Modern Military Transition Framework (MMTF) is a new lens for understanding—and solving—the military transition challenge. For decades, we’ve operated under a flawed assumption: that the military and private sector are similar environments, and that military experience naturally translates into private-sector success. The MMTF corrects this. It starts with a simple truth: the military and private sector are fundamentally different environments. That distinction changes everything.
The Insight That Powers the MMTF
The MMTF reframes the problem: it’s not that service members are unprepared—it’s that they were prepared for the wrong environment. Transition isn’t just a career change; it’s an environmental shift. The MMTF shows that training isn’t just helpful—it’s required to successfully bridge the gap between the two environments.
With the right framework, we can stop putting service members into impossible situations and start equipping them for long-term success.
