Program Manager
Ken West came back to The Fusion Group after authoring and publishing his first book, Get What You Want. Since then Ken has published six more books, among which are Capitalism WIIFM, Achieve Your Purpose, and Your Life Zones. He brings to Fusion a unique blend of skills and experience with careers in management, training, instructional design, editing and publishing. Ken is also a combat veteran who served as an Army Paratrooper.
A summa cum laude graduate of Northeastern University, Ken went on to graduate courses in communication and publishing at Harvard University. During his time at Harvard in 1998-99 he researched and wrote an article published in a Harvard journal that accurately predicted the success factors for online news. Since then Ken’s become a social media evangelist, recognizing its reach and potential as a dynamic tool for connecting with friends and potential clients alike.
Ken and his wife, Pat, moved from New England to South Florida to be close to their grandchildren. Ken’s an avid reader, perfectly happy to curl up with a good book. His passion is learning the history of political ideas, reading classic (and popular) literature, and writing. His secret ambition is to finally take a long road trip across the United States as John Steinbeck did in Travels with Charley.
