Jasen VanWoert
Sioux Falls
Summary
Service-minded leader with a background in the Army, team leadership, coaching, operations, and fitness. Served as an Army Observer Controller/Trainer, where I helped train, evaluate, and develop Soldiers and leaders in high-pressure environments. I have experience giving clear feedback, identifying performance gaps, improving team readiness, and helping people perform better when it matters most.
I bring experience leading teams, training new employees, enforcing safety expectations, solving problems, and holding myself and others to a high standard. My background has taught me how to stay calm under pressure, communicate clearly, work as part of a team, and take responsibility when people are counting on me. I will always bring that same mindset, work ethic, and commitment to my new career.
