October 03, 2018 Through The Fire with author Pete Dechat
Through the Fire is Pete Dechat’s first book. A labor of love by a man who
went from wanting to be a rock star to telling everyone he can about the
Creator of the stars in the heavens.
Pete literally went Through the Fire. His ministry is sharing with people
in the United States and other countries how God brought him through that
fire.
The son of Andrew Frank Dechat and Monika Lore Dechat, Pete was born in
1971 at George Washington University Hospital in Washington, D.C. He
graduated from Osborne Park High School in Manassas, Virginia. Pete lives
with his wife Judy and daughter Rebekah on Virginia land that includes
goats, chickens, gardens and fruit trees.
Pete's book: "Through the Fire: The True Story of a 21st Century Job"
shares his harrowing story. On July 10, 2007, a Nascar plane crashed into
his neighbor’s home in a suburb of Orlando, Florida, killing a young mother
and her son, and both pilot and passenger in the plane. The fuel tank broke
loose from the plane, crashed into Pete’s home and exploded. His
four-year-old daughter Gabi died. Pete got seriously burned trying to find
and rescue her. ThroughTheFire.net

September 27, 2018 Courageously Step Out and Create your Dreams with Michael Tunney of KeySmart
Michael Tunney, founder and CEO of KeySmart, a company that produces
swiss-style key holders that help people get rid of bulky key-rings.
Living in a society where most people’s focus is about making money, it’s
rare to see someone who has the courage to choose passion over paycheck. In
2013, Michael put 2 weeks’ notice in his $140,000 a year robotics
engineering job. He was tired of spending too much time doing things that
weren’t improving his quality of life. Michael decided to embrace his inner
desire and started his own entrepreneurial journey-- by quitting his job,
selling everything he owned, and living out of his car with just two
suitcases of clothes.
Michael came up with the idea for KeySmart simply because he was sick of
always carrying a bunch of keys that would stab his thigh. After inventing
the prototypes and raising nearly $330,000 on Kickstarter, he successfully
brought these efficient key-organizing tools to life. And now, besides the
basic KeySmart that would save people valuable space and eliminate jingling
noises in their pockets, the KeySmart Pro with smart location tracking is
also on the market, so no one will ever have to worry about losing the keys
again!
Despite the success of KeySmart, Michael is still taking small salary of
only $40,000 a year. He puts everything back into product development and
business growth, for his happiness comes from being motivated and creating
great products that keep customers excited. www.mykeysmart.com

September 21, 2018 The Link Between Curiosity and Business Performance, Janet Gerhard of Inquizo
The importance of innovation on business success is undeniable. Innovative
organizations significantly outperform other organizations. At the root of
their ability to innovate is curiosity.
For the first time, there's a tool to help leaders hire for curiosity.
Research conducted by Inquizo has found the best way to measure curiosity
in people is through actual and observed behaviors. Through Natural
Language Processing (NLP) analyses, Inquizo sought to understand the
language variables that correlate with curiosity. These studies represent
the first attempt to link curiosity with language use patterns and support
a growing body of work that uses language to reveal social and
psychological processes.
Savvy Guest today, Michael Hvisdos and Janet Gerhard of Inquizo discuss
the direct link between curiosity and performance, and their assertion that
algorithms can be written and protected (patent, copyright, etc.) to
accurately measure curiosity levels for employees that can predict
performance. www.inquizo.com
