About Doug Tempest
I solve complex problems with purpose and precision, helping organizations turn challenges into opportunities. From companies to cockpits, I thrive in the most austere, high-stakes environments by using my pattern intelligence and expert sense-making skills to uncover what others miss and design bold, effective solutions.I am a Navy helicopter pilot who made the intentional choice to leave traditional aviation to focus on innovation and the future. My expertise includes aviation, unmanned systems, robotics, artificial intelligence (AI), infrastructure, disruptive technology adoption, decision making, and creating expertise. I believe so much in helping others push the bounds of what is possible that in my free time I lead the LEGO Robotics program at my son’s elementary school and mentor the Maggie Walker Governor’s School’s Mech Tech Dragons (ranked 14th in the world last season in the FIRST Robotics Competition).
