Workshop Wednesdays with Tony Gambone with his guest Pamela Gockley & Peter Mehit
In 1996, a small Internet website graphics, design, and maintenance company called “Grumpy Graphics” was started by Pamela Gockley and Dean Hornberger. This venture blossomed in 2000 into an award-winning, multi-service company, Vigilant Corporation, headed by Pam as President, CEO, and Chairman. PennsylvaniaJobs.Com was the first affiliate in the Vigilant family. It is a recruiting website for businesses and also offers the "The Job Search Success" program that teaches job seekers how to navigate the hiring process. We have coached many people through the process. In 2004 Pam was selected as one of the Best 50 Outstanding Business Women in Pennsylvania, honoured for her years of success in owning and operating Vigilant, as well as her many years of service to the community.
Peter Mehit’s biggest strength is that he can quickly visualize business concepts and distill them down to a set of strategies and tactics that can be acted upon. He has used this ability in the creation of hundreds of business plans, the direct start up of dozens of companies and the analysis and improvement of scores of businesses. Mr. Mehit honed this experience as he worked across many industries worldwide as a professional consultant to multi-national firms such as Panasonic, DuPont, IAMs, Boeing and governmental agencies such as the U.S. Postal Service, the State of California and agencies in Los Angeles, Orange and San Bernardino Counties. He also has the unique experience of working at the other end of the scale, as a member of many launch teams or as owner of several start up companies.
