ABOUT JOSHUA R. JOHNSON
Midwestern values taught me to work hard, stay humble, and take care of people. After 16+ years in the U.S. Air Force, I’ve turned that ethos into my profession.I’m the Wing First Sergeant for the 127th Wing at Selfridge ANGB, where I focus on building trust, developing supervisors, and helping Airmen perform at their best. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Industrial and Organizational Psychology from Colorado State University to pair real-world leadership with evidence-based approaches to motivation, performance, and organizational health.I’m also the founder of Johnson Coaching & Consulting, where I coach leaders, veterans, and high-performing professionals through career transitions, leadership challenges, and personal growth. My coaching philosophy is simple: when people feel seen, challenged, and supported, they rise.Outside of my primary role, I serve as Coach of the Air Force Cycling Team and Deputy Director of the Air Force Heritage Memorial to Memorial (M2M) Ride—helping athletes and teams pursue excellence through discipline, resilience, and shared purpose.Many people know me as the Inspirational Airman. I embrace that identity because inspiration isn’t hype—it’s helping people recognize the potential they already have.I believe leadership is service, growth is intentional, and greatness is often limited only by belief.If you’re ready to grow, lead, or perform at a higher level, let’s connect.
