In this episode, Valeria Teles interviews Dennis Houchin, the author of The Passion Principles, a guide to identifying and creating a life of authentic passion. He made this ebook available for free at all major ebook retailers.
Dennis is now set to bring his messages of motivation, passion, and overcoming adversity to audiences around the globe. From Middle and High School students, to seasoned business people, his presentations use humor and a deep personal connection with the audience to engage his audience and help them see the world anew, in a way that enables them to live a more satisfying, more fulfilling life.
He teaches the same principles that he personally used to go from being a High School drop out with severe learning disabilities to becoming a highly educated expert in Information Technology, completing his Baccalaureate of Science degree and earning his Master of Science degree while raising a family, building a business, writing two books, building a speaking career and most recently becoming an Adjunct Professor of Cybersecurity at Vanderbilt University.
Dennis Houchin spent four decades as an entrepreneur, software developer, engineer, and top technology executive on the cutting edge in the Information Technology field. He developed expertise in the areas in Software Development, Network, and Security engineering and currently teaches Cybersecurity at Vanderbilt University.
In 2009 he began to focus more on ‘hacking’ human systems, specifically on understanding and applying the personality theories established by C.G. Jung to the various technical, marketing and operations people that had difficulty understanding each other. Dennis has addressed audiences of national security and hospitality industry conventions on the subject of improving IT productivity by improving the relationships between business managers and technical service professionals.
In 2015, Dennis released his first publicly available book, The Achievement Protocol, which synthesizes the disciplines of Strategic Planning, Project Management, and Task Management into an easy to use system that anyone can use to help them achieve their life’s goals.
