Dana A. Oliver (retired) was the Senior Director of Research & Development for Medtronic's Surgical Technologies ENT / NT division and helped grow this business unit from $100 million to approximately $2 billion in annual revenues over fourteen years. He has approximately 30 years of experience in the field of medical devices, working for such companies as Medtronic, Genzyme, SIMS Level 1, Kirwan Surgical, and Strichman Medical.

Discover the Secrets for Profitable and Lasting Innovation" and "Mantra Leadership - Don't Become the Emperor with No Clothes!" Finding Heaven is a literal and figurative journey to discover God's Kingdom that blends science, psychology, and faith by an individual who's skeptical given the lack of proof to point too, but deeply wants to believe. The author asks essential questions and provides both objective research and subjective characterization in attempts to craft conclusions between verifiable data and religious scripture. The author seeks to find a deeper meaning by researching the following four key questions; Can your spirit truly exist outside your body? Is it possible for your spirit to maintain some sense of consciousness? Assuming Heaven exists, where can it be located? And, what is the mechanism or gateway to access Heaven? Further, the author strives to find pragmatic reasoning when the conclusion is blurred between mere speculation and incomplete data confirmation. Mr. Oliver shares his years of research as he connects the dots around some of the latest science specific to the brain, consciousness, the solar system, and the potential of life after bodily death. He culminates his writing with novel ideas and shares potential conclusions to some of mankind's oldest questions based upon his research findings and unique perspective. The book and its discoveries have helped Mr. Oliver find peace of mind, and he welcomes others to ponder his explanations of life after death.

Dana reveals his easy to apply and proven techniques on how to identify your customer's unmet needs and transform them into patent protected, premium priced, market share leading products and technologies. These same philosophies and methodologies were used in helping Medtronic Surgical Technologies grow from $100 million to approximately $2 billion in annual sales.
