Chris Natzke
I am not only a champion myself, but I have been training others to find their own Inner Champions for over four decades. As an 8th Degree Black Belt/Master Instructor and former national Taekwondo champion, I rank in the top 1% of all martial artists in the world. As a keynote speaker, life-leadership coach and author, my passion is sharing my unique brand of Black Belt Leadership so others may discover the most empowered version of themselves – leading to clarity of purpose, increased confidence and the courage to take inspired action to make their dreams come true.
Through my "7 Qualities of Black Belt Leadership" I use martial arts as a metaphor to I inspire organizations, leaders and their teams through my various "Mind of a Champion" programs which include:
1) Keynote Speaking
2) Board Breaking Experience Workshops
3) Communications and Team Building Seminars and
4) Executive Leadership Coaching
I earned a bachelor’s degree in Communication Studies from Northwestern University (where I also was a 4-year letterman in football) and a Masters in Spiritual Psychology from the University of Santa Monica. In addition to being an entreprenuer for the past 24 years, I am also a former sales executive with the Procter & Gamble Distributing Company. My experience in athletics, entrepreneurship and the corporate world gives me unique perspective on vision creation, strategic planning, communication and leadership within teams. I am also the author of my book, "Black Belt Leadership: 7 Keys to Creating a Life of Purpose by Discovering Your Inner Champion".
Through my work, leaders and their teams learn to profoundly impact their lives and organizations by maximizing the power that lives within them to create the breakthrough results that come from accessing their own Inner Champions.

Lori Saitz loves sharing the power of gratitude and meditation with entrepreneurial professionals who hire her to help them boost business success and achieve life goals faster – without working harder. She is the CEO of Zen Rabbit and host of the podcast “FINE is a 4-Letter Word.”
Lori’s first business was a baking company, through which she introduced the world to The Gratitude Cookie. A nationally recognized expert in using gratitude in business, she’s evolved that knowledge into creating customized gratitude meditations to help clients effectively combat "puppy mind" and manifest more good stuff in less time. She asserts that “being good at” meditation does not require hours a day sitting cross-legged on a mat or the ability to clear your mind of all thoughts.
When she's not working, you can find Lori in the weight room at the gym, because she also loves baking and eating.
See more about the customized gratitude meditations at http://customizedmeditation.com/

WILTON ROGERS III
CEO of STA Group
(Business Technology Consulting Firm)
Decades of business experience can never prepare you for an economic downturn. Many businesses do not know how to pivot when this happens. Through the businesses I owned and corporations I worked for, I realized that most of them would have been closed by now, or will not make it through this pandemic. Not because they can’t, but because they don’t know-how.
Decades of business experience can never prepare you for an economic downturn. Many businesses do not know how to pivot when this happens. Through the businesses I owned and corporations I worked for, I realized that most of them would have been closed by now, or will not make it through this pandemic. Not because they can’t, but because they don’t know-how.
Getting business feedback from people that “supposedly” have the knowledge, or having that “it worked for them it must work for me mentality” will be one of the biggest reasons for the flop. Getting a clear understanding of where your business is today is the first step. Designing a plan to maximize your current applications, programs, and software is the next. Implementing a plan is the final step to knowing how to take full advantage of technology, without having to invest a lot of time and money. Being able to see your ROI before committing allows the skepticism to go away and the value sinks in.
I have owned businesses and worked in the corporate world for over 25 years. I know the mental strain it takes to own and run a business. Getting the education you need to understand how to take full advantage of automation will turn your business around overnight. I will share my experience and knowledge that will help you locate areas you can improve the minute we are done talking.
I am knee-deep in the automation industry and know how to take full advantage of your current setup, without paying a dime. Just a simple 30-minute call and you will have learned how to make tomorrow easier.
ROB HOWZE
COO of STA Group
(Business Technology Consulting Firm)
I am a philanthropist, businessman, musician, husband, and father that loves technology. Over the past 20 years, I’ve had the pleasure of serving in leadership roles for various sectors, from corporate to nonprofit. Marketing, promotions, public relations/speaking, and business development are my most valuable skill sets. Every day I wake up looking forward to being able to utilize all of my knowledge and experience to empower people to make decisions that will ultimately improve their lives.

Dennis Mellen, a USAF Academy graduate (1975), is a retired Air Force pilot after serving as a lieutenant colonel and chief pilot for 20 years until his retirement from the Air Force Reserves in 1996.
At the time, he simultaneously worked as an instructor pilot and fleet captain at Alaska Airlines where he was the head of training over 550 pilots and 40 instructors. He was also part of the instructor cadre instrumental in establishing the Alaska Airlines route structure in eastern Russia from the destinations: Vladivostok, Khabarovsk, Magadan, and Petropavlovsk-Kamchatskiy. And as a veteran, he participated in the Desert One preparation, he was deployed to Sudan (in 1986) to counter Libyan incursions in Chad, and participated in Desert Shield/Storm. After retiring in 2012 from his 28-year flying career due to a heart attack, Dennis continued searching for a new purpose and new opportunities. He worked in aviation management at two air carriers heading up their training and standardization departments. He also worked as a training consultant and
certified International Air Transport Association Operation Safety auditor before becoming a high school baseball coach, speaker, and author. His goal with his first book is to provide motivation, education, and humor to inspire those who face serious challenges in their lives. Dennis and his wife, Heidi of 37 years, live in the Chicago suburbs, and they have four sons and just welcomed their first grandchild as of August 2020—they look forward to helping raise their granddaughter, as well as welcoming more grandchildren.
