This Veterans Day, we're honoring the service, sacrifice, and contributions of veterans across GGP and our communities.
We asked Andrew Jones, GGP General Manager and U.S. Navy veteran, to share a lesson from his military service that continues to guide him today. His answer is a powerful reminder of the importance of putting people first.
“The lesson I lean on most frequently from my time in the U.S. Navy’s Submarine Service is captured in a simple phrase: ‘Mission First, People Always.’ I learned in the phase of my life that accomplishing the mission requires discipline, accountability, and an unwavering commitment to the individuals serving alongside you. I have carried that philosophy with me, recognizing that taking care of your people and accomplishing a goal are not competing priorities, but mutually reinforcing responsibilities.”
Thank you to Andrew and all veterans for your service.
