Salute to Major General (Ret.) N. Lee S. Price

A heartfelt thank you to MG (Ret.) N. Lee. S. Price, as she retires from Thayer Leadership after serving as an impactful faculty member for many years.
​​​​
Lee entered the Army in 1975 as a Private First Class when only 2% of the Army workforce was female and retired over 38 years later as a Major General. Upon her retirement in 2014, only seven women had gone further in the Army, and she had a number of “firsts”:

• First woman to receive a commission through the Officer Candidate School to achieve the rank of General Officer.
• First woman in the Army Acquisition Corps to be promoted to the rank of Brigadier General
• First woman selected for a General Officer rank while serving in a Special Operations unit

Explore her autobiography, No Greater Honor: Lessons From My Life as a Soldier, for poignant, humorous, and thought-provoking stories in the areas of resiliency, trust, and comfort zones as Lee rose through the ranks from Private First Class to Major General.

As a notable cyber expert, Lee first became interested in computers in the early 1970s. That passion propelled her to earn three master’s degrees and leave a legacy of delivering groundbreaking technologies to U.S. Forces around the world.

At Thayer Leadership, Lee was a dynamic and accomplished presenter in the areas of Leadership Development, Executive Coaching, Crisis Management, Transitional Change, and Program Management/Logistics.

Thank you, MG Price, for sharing part of your outstanding career with our clients!
