I’m an award-winning artist and Amazon bestselling author who became an industrial-organizational psychologist in order to make work meaningful. Foundational to my I-O psychology work is my childhood. I was raised in housing projects by a single mom. An artist herself, she encouraged me to find my own purpose in life and work. I did this by living in many places, amongst many types of people and cultures. After trying on a wide variety of different careers, I returned to school to earn a Ph.D. focused on human factors and implicit cognition. While there I created an IAT for job/life satisfaction. These many experiences shape my view of what makes work meaningful and whole; and it’s inclusive of the human, built, and intangible environments®.

Ray Amanat founded “Heroes in Action” mainly because he was a victim of bullying and violence at home and from elementary school through high school. With that, Ray decided to be a “Victim No More”, and to end the bullying and violence in his life. He began studying Martial Arts which gave him the confidence and empowered him to stand up against those who were bullying him. Since schools have “Zero Tolerance” policies, Ray knew he could not teach martial arts in the classroom, but he could apply the principles of honor, integrity, respect and character as part of his curriculum. Since bullying and violence are safety issues, Ray researched, trained and became certified in many programs having to do with public and personal safety. At this point, he founded Heroes In Action, where he developed programs to help adults and children of all abilities to feel empowered to keep themselves safe, as well as to create a culture of respect and non-violence towards others while building a life of success. Ray has since lectured and trained at public and private universities, elementary schools, middle schools, and high schools. He gives seminars and personal safety workshops to individuals, groups and corporations, providing them with street-smart tips, practical advice, and role-playing with real world examples. He works with area law enforcement and is often interviewed by radio and news programs for his expertise on personal safety. He has established himself as a leading advocate for victims of abuse, bullying and violence. His tragic personal experience gave him a first-hand understanding of their experiences, which is why the programs he has developed work. Ray's presentations always bring that Aha moment as he explains his unique approach to addressing the bully or outright handling the threat of a criminal intruder. He will give you the foresight to spot a threat, have a plan of action and utilize an exit strategy in order to get to safety. This is a must for Everyone!

Through long term experiences in the field of sleep medicine to breathing medicine, and intensive care medicine. For many years Christine has worked in national and international companies and clinics. What happened next? The rather exotic branch of sleep medicine developed into a new and recognized branch in science. Today the knowledge of sleep medicine, the connection between sleeping and being awake has almost become general knowledge. Especially companies benefit from employee trainings and higher performances of their employees. Today Christine gives motivational speeches on how to create a healthy and meaningful lifestyle and working balance. Sleep is essential.
