I’m Kenneth Vogt and I’m the founder of Vera Claritas. (That means “True Clarity” in Latin. Erudite, hey?)
I pulse out life-sustaining entrepreneurism like a brilliant laser beam of love. As “The Clarity Guy” I bring focus and simplicity to the grand notion that businesses big and small can and must transform the world.
I am a man who has “been there, done that”:
- I had a stodgy title at a traditional company (controller for a manufacturer).
- I had a sexy title at a splashy company (Principal Solutions Architect for a fabulously successful dot com).
- But mostly I have been an entrepreneur for over 30 years.
I created one of the first e-commerce web sites for a Fortune 500 company way back in 1997 and I’ve ridden the internet ever since. Having worked in entrepreneurial enterprises large and small, I have experienced what it takes to create, run and even recreate life-sustaining businesses.
I have lived and worked all over the US, Europe, and most recently Mexico. I speak several languages poorly (Spanish, Hindi, Punjabi) and English quite well.
