FORGED IN FIRE

The U.S. military’s Special Operations selection processes are designed to expose weakness and identify the rare individuals who can perform and thrive under extreme pressure. Candidates are pushed beyond exhaustion, deprived of food and sleep, and forced to make critical decisions while depleted. Instructors look for more than strength or speed; they evaluate teamwork, adaptability, resilience, humility, and the ability to lead when everything changes without warning.​  

Only a fraction make it through. These leaders have the grit to push forward when strength is gone, the mental agility to solve problems in chaos, and the integrity to put the mission and their team above themselves. And selection is only the beginning. They go on to spend years leading elite teams in the most demanding environments on earth, training others, executing complex missions, and delivering when there is zero margin for error.​  

At Dagger75, we place these battle-tested leaders into civilian roles where grit, accountability, and high-level execution aren’t optional.​ If you’re ready to close your leadership gap with proven performers, let’s start the conversation today.​​
