Introduction of Dr. Pattakos (for keynote presentations)

• I’d like to introduce Dr. Alex Pattakos (pronounced "Pa" "Tacos"), affectionately nicknamed, "Dr. Meaning."

• Dr. Pattakos is the author of the book, Prisoners of Our Thoughts: Viktor Frankl’s Principles for Discovering Meaning in Life and Work and founder of the Center for Meaning, based in Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA. He is a leading authority on applying the philosophy and therapeutic approach of the world-renown psychiatrist, Dr. Viktor Frankl (author of the classic bestseller, Man's Search for Meaning) to contemporary life and work situations, and has spent many years working in the areas of mental health, personal development, and leadership advancement.

• Dr. Pattakos understands the challenges facing business and government workers. He works closely with The Innovation Group and its global roster of clients, including: ADP, AstraZeneca, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Cargill, DuPont, Four Seasons Hotels & Resorts, Hewlett–Packard, Kraft Foods, Mars, The Mayo Clinic, Singapore Civil Service College, U.S. Food and Drug Administration, U.S. Forest Service, VHA, and others.

• Dr. Pattakos has taught in business and public administration programs at universities in the United States, Canada, and Europe.

• We’ve invited Dr. Pattakos to share his message and approach on how we can find deeper meaning in what we do, both individually and as leaders in our organization and, of course, to make sure that we are not "Prisoners of Our Thoughts!"

• Please welcome Dr. Alex Pattakos.
