Dan McClure first realized that the real world pushes back on unusual dreams when, within weeks of shipping out to Nepal, he was dismissed from the Peace Corps because of an outie belly button (true story). Fortunately, he has since discovered opportunities for creativity and imagination throughout an economy that is reiventing itself.
He has been an evangelist for innovations in businesses as diverse as capital construction, energy procurement, government services, and automotive marketing. Delivering agile new capabilities for operations with billion dollar budgets, he has helped Fortune 100 companies capture competitive advantage in rapidly changing markets, saved school districts and taxpayers tens of millions of dollars, and been at the cutting edge of new consumer focused marketing initiatives.
He has been both a successful entrepreneur (winning an Inc 500 award) and independent consultant. Dan’s experiences with big picture strategies and agile execution have allowed him to design and present nationally recognized seminars. He has also been a featured conference speaker.
Most recently, he founded Dreams With Teeth, a project that seeks to make the pursuit of original ideas a viable path for people’s lives. DWT is a forum for no nonsense encouragement, useful knowledge, and hands-on tools … the resources that uncommon people need to turn creative dreams into practical action.
