A WORD FROM JOE

As the Inventor and CEO of FlexScreen, my recent experience on ABC's hit show, Shark Tank, was surreal. Standing before these famous investors, presenting the product that I invented in my garage, and having three of the five Sharks battle over FlexScreen exceeded every expectation that I could have imagined for my business.


This experience taught me so much that I started a blog called "Lessons From The Tank," where I share some of my most vulnerable moments and insights gained from the beginning of the Shark Tank process to the final deal with Lori Greiner. I believe it will bring value to your career and personal life, and I invite you to check out my blog and other inspirational resources.

Put Me In, Coach

Everyone wants a "nice" leader. Someone they can relate to, feel seen and respected by, and who is approachable. But we all also crave a structure that positions us for the win. And sometimes, that "win" might mean a promotion, but it could also mean finding a different job where your skills or personality are more needed and appreciated.
