ALEXANDRIA, Va. (December 1, 2016) -- TRALA is pleased to announce that the keynote speaker for its 2017 Annual Meeting is Robert O'Neill. The 2017 Annual Meeting will be held April 2-5, 2017, at the Hyatt Regency Coconut Point in Bonita Springs, Florida.
 
Rob O'Neill is one of the most highly-decorated combat veterans of our time. He was a SEAL Team Six leader with the Naval Special Warfare Development Group. He has deployed more than a dozen times, and he held combat leadership roles in more than 400 combat missions in four different theaters of war. A highly-trained Navy SEAL, he led the military's most elite and was involved in our nation's most important campaigns. With most of his career shrouded in a classified cloak, O'Neill was the man on the ground we have never heard of but know exists. He was one of the quiet professionals performing the most difficult tasks in the most difficult circumstances, serving his remarkable career in the shadows and keeping America safe in the process.
 
In his line of work, instant, critical decision-making is a necessity for success, and he has proven experience in exceptionally high-risk and fluid environments. Having trained more than 800 special operations and tactical operators, O'Neill brings this unique expertise to organizations and translates his elite SEAL team training into high-impact, actionable insights on leadership, decision-making, operating in uncertain environments, and how to become the 'best of the best.' 
 
"We are very excited to have Rob O'Neill as TRALA's keynote speaker for our 2017 Annual Meeting," said Jake Jacoby, TRALA President and CEO. "Rob's combination of leadership and critical decision-making skills will be very interesting for our membership to hear."
 
Since leaving active duty, O'Neill is a co-founder of Your Grateful Nation, which provides individualized transition support for Special Operations heroes and their families. He is also a contributor to Fox News.
