Who We Are
What started out as a desire to help a student catch-up on a missed lecture turned into a full-fledged educational content media company, all because Lon has a difficult time doing anything in half measures.
Lon Schiffbauer is an Associate Professor of Business Management at Salt Lake Community College and a business strategy consultant dedicated to helping companies develop thriving organizational cultures. He holds an MBA, a Ph.D. in Industrial/Organizational Psychology, and is a SPHR-certified human resources professional with the Society for Human Resource Management. For his dissertation, Lon studied the effects of the pursuit of self-esteem on an employee’s ability to thrive in the workplace. In addition to his academic and consulting background, Lon has over 25 years’ experience working for such companies as FedEx, Intel, and eBay, as well as a variety of small to mid-sized companies around the world.
In the past, Lon’s hobbies included participating in Ironman triathlons, running marathons, and riding in the occasional cycling century, though these days tending the garden and puttering in the garage is about his speed. He’s also ostensibly trying to muster the courage to restore his 1965 MG Midget, but this still eludes him.
What We Do
We increase student engagement and performance, while decreasing the time and effort professors spend prepping their courses. We do this by producing high-quality lecture videos, podcasts, articles, case studies, study guides, lecture notes, PowerPoint presentations, and other study materials used by that rarest of all creatures: the entrepreneurial instructor who wants to deliver an engaging and inspiring experience in their courses.
What Makes Us Different?
Lon brings a deep and varied background in many disciplines, both in academia as well as the corporate sector. This helps him illustrate the connection between theory and application for students.
