People to meet, fellow Catalyst, Michael Santarcangelo

Michael describes himself as a “human catalyst” which I think it a cool description for the work that all coaches do.  He define catalyst as

a substance that increases the rate and enhances the results of a reaction. Since they are not consumed in the process, catalysts can be used repeatedly, and in different situations. “

Michaels focus is on Security and he runs The Security Catalyst at Securitycatalyst.com. Michael says that the security catalyst is a practice uniquely focused on the essential elements of every organization: people, information and risk.

As a full member of the National Speakers Association, Michael is known for delivering substantial content in a way that is energetic and entertaining. Michael connects with those he works with, and helps them engage in natural and comfortable ways – he literally makes security relevant and simple to understand! Michael pioneers new ways to engage others in the process of information protection. He created The Catalyst Academy to facilitate the exchange of ideas in a way that allows people to learn and apply their knowledge for immediate results and program success.

People to Meet: Dan Smith, the founder of the Genius Project

Dan SmithOne of my core beliefs is that our purpose in life is to be abundant. To share our unique talents with the world. So many of my friends are people who are :

1. Really cool people

2. Massively overachieving in sharing their talents with the world

Dan Smith fits the bill on both these counts, and you won’t find a nicer “bloke” (Dan is from Australia!). Since moving to Shanghai he has expanded the nascent NLP “industry” through ChinaNLP, his ability to get on well with people and his willingness to share his passion and knowledge with others.

Learn more about his many and diverse projects (Dan still runs a men’s tailoring company in Australia) at his web site here.
