Lt. Gen. Donna Shipton, Air Force Life Cycle Management Commander, helped kick off The Big Hoopla “The Road Starts Here” by speaking at the Hoopla’s STEM Challenge opening ceremony on March 17, 2024, at the Dayton Convention Center. “One of the great things that I love about our Air Force is all the adventures we get to have every single day. Our scientists and engineers work hard to bring great things like satellites and fighter weapons systems to bear, and they do great things for the nation,” said Shipton. I hope that you have fun today and that someday, maybe you want to be in our Force or Space Force to carry these interests forward on behalf of our nation. Championed by Wright State University, the STEM Challenge is geared toward K-8 students. The event organizer’s goal was to tie together the excitement and passion for college basketball with the power of STEM education. Regional and national partners were on hand to engage with students with hands-on STEM-related activities. (U.S. Air Force photo by Jim Varhegyi)

Lt. Gen. Donna D. Shipton All-Call graphic

Lt. Gen. Donna D. Shipton held her first Center-wide All-Call virtually Jan. 19 from Wright-Patt. The Center’s new commander took the opportunity to introduce herself and outline the career path that landed her at the helm of AFLCMC. Joining Shipton for the discussion was the Center’s Executive Director, Dennis D’Angelo, her Deputy Commander, Col. John Kurian, the Center’s Command Chief, Chief Master Sgt. James Fitch III, and her Mobilization Assistant, Brig. Gen. Preston McFarren. Before taking questions from attendees, Shipton laid out her leadership philosophy, described how she generally conducts business, and explained how she sees her role in the Center. “I see my role as resolving ambiguity, controlling complexity, and focusing the team’s creativity,” Shipton said. She explained that her goal is to create an environment where everyone in the center can win together. “Having a winning organization means we have to all learn and grow together as a team,” she said. She went on to challenge the workforce to get comfortable getting uncomfortable. She explained that the only way to truly grow is to get out of your comfort zone especially as the Air Force shifts its focus toward Great Power Competition (GPC). She remarked that it is important to keep a keen eye on the Center’s vision and to always keep the mission in mind. Shipton closed the session by thanking the workforce for attending the session, for being engaged, and for everything they are doing to move the Air Force forward.
