Defence Welfare Call
Honouring service by enabling meaningful second careers
CSI’s Defence Welfare Call initiative is dedicated to supporting retiring and retired defence personnel as they transition into impactful civilian careers. Defence officers bring unmatched discipline, leadership, operational expertise, and commitment—qualities that are highly valuable within the service industry but often underutilized after retirement. By reimagining defence expertise for roles in project management, logistics, administration, and operations, CSI facilitates structured career transitions through targeted upskilling. Integrating modern tools such as drone-enabled logistics and AI-driven supply chain systems, the initiative enables veterans to move seamlessly into technology-enabled leadership roles—honouring their service while addressing industry demand for disciplined, future-ready professionals.
