Daniel S. Hanson is an experienced leader, an author, and a teacher. For 30 years he held key executive positions with four Fortune 500 companies. His experiences as a leader inside corporate America prompted him to write about creating and sustaining caring work environments that bring out the best in people and the organization. He is the author of A Place to Shine: Emerging from the Shadows at Work and Cultivating Common Ground: Releasing the Power of Relationships at Work and a contributing author to 12 Step Wisdom at Work: Transforming Your Life and Your Organization. Dan is currently a member of the faculty at Augsburg College where he teaches courses in Communication.
Dan and his wife Sue are also the parents of a son Joel who struggles
with a severe mental illness. It is this experience that prompted Dan
to write Room
for J: A Family Struggles With Schizophrenia. Dan and Sue are committed
to help other parents like them who struggle to care for someone who
does not willingly accept their care. Dan and Sue live on a small lake
in Maple Grove, MN.
