One more thing before you go...
We're extremely honoured to have a conversation with General (ret.) Lori J. Robinson. She was the first female officer in the history of the United States Armed Forces to command a major Unified Combatant Command. In this conversation, we'll learn how she navigated her journey at United States Northern Command (USNORTHCOM) and as commander of the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD). This conversation was made possible by our platinum sponsor, Infor.
Meet the Speakers
General Lori J. Robinson is a retired United States Air Force general who served as commander of the United States Northern Command (USNORTHCOM) and commander of the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) from May 2016 to May 2018. She was the first female officer in the history of the United States Armed Forces to command a major Unified Combatant Command.
Robinson previously served as commander of Pacific Air Forces; air component commander for United States Pacific Command; and executive director, Pacific Air Combat Operations Staff, Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, Hawaii. The Pacific Air Forces command has responsibility for Air Force activities spread over half the globe and supports 45,000 airmen serving principally in Japan, South Korea, Hawaii, Alaska, and Guam.
On March 18, 2016, United States Secretary of Defense Ash Carter announced that Robinson would be named by President Barack Obama to replace Admiral William E. Gortney as commander of USNORTHCOM and NORAD, subject to approval by the United States Senate. In 2016 Robinson was named to Time magazine's list of 100 most influential people. Robinson was confirmed and took over from Admiral Gortney on 13 May 2016.
