For all sessions and paths of Basic Project Know-how, the coach and facilitator will be Dan Clapper. Dan grew up in Silicon Valley, a neighbor of Steve Jobs. After graduating Stanford Phi Beta Kappa, Dan worked for more than a decade as a key consultant to a Fortune #1 firm, informing their HR development projects in more than a dozen countries.
In 2004, he was invited by the US Department of Defense and The University of Maryland Center for Advanced Study of Language to present on the post-9/11 future of language training in the US.
The following year, he launched this company, Cogent Language, in the US as an Arizona LLC. Now with operations in Japan, its main line of business is enabling individuals and teams to start where they are and grow their own project know-how, fit to their own realities, and to their own ideals.
