Allen Oelschlaeger

Allen Oelschlaeger is a conflict management expert and co-founder of Vistelar, a consulting and training institute focused on addressing the entire spectrum of human conflict. He is the author/editor of several published books and manuals in Vistelar’s “Confidence In Conflict” and “Conflict Management” series, which have been written for:

* Contact professionals who directly interact with the general public or an organization’s clients;

* Organizational teams who want to improve their performance by better managing conflict;

* Individuals who must deal with conflict in their everyday lives.

Allen also writes about growth strategies that business owners and executives can use to "Be Seen as the Recognized Authority in Their Market Niche," including the use of online video for content marketing and eLearning (by employing an online multimedia content-distribution and cloud-based hosting application developed by Content XLerator, an Internet technology firm Allen founded in 2010).

Allen's first book, the “Finally, the Straight Scoop About Weight, Nutrition and Fitness” was published in 2007, which led to ongoing research and writing about the prevalent myths, misinformation, and misdirection concerning weight loss, eating well, and exercise — as well as the creation of a fool-proof approach ("BITE Method") for never having to struggle with weight issues ever again.

Allen is a professional speaker, has served on the marketing faculty at University of Wisconsin-Whitewater, and has a B.S. from Washington State University and an MBA from the Wharton School.
