Craig Butera
Biography
Craig Butera spent his adult life in uniform, learning to practice servant leadership
before it became a celebrated and popular approach. Craig attributes this to his formative
leadership experience as a West Point cadet where he had the opportunity to learn
about himself and then progress into positions of leadership with ever-increasing
levels of responsibility. He recently concluded a 25+ year career as an active duty
infantryman in the US Army.
Craig’s most recent roles in the Army were leading the first of three phases of the
US Army’s Ranger School, and then leading the 6-month long professional military education
of Army infantry and armor captains at the Maneuver Center of Excellence.
He is passionate about and adept in a leadership approach which harnesses the collective
abilities, talents, and interests of team members. He would be honored to come alongside
you as you lead or aspire to lead, as well as prepare you for future opportunities.
He is working towards his Associate Certified Coach credential within the ICF.
