Autorenporträt
Mr. T. James LeDoux is a U.S. Navy Vietnam veteran, having worked on river operations on the upper Mekong River with the Mobile Riverine Force and, at times, supporting the Office of Naval Intelligence in Vietnam in 1969 and 1970. His military experience extends from years 1968 to 2000, in both active and reserve service in the Navy, Army, Air Force and Coast Guard. In Coast Guard Reserves, he was part of the Coast Guard security team for former President Nixon's residence at the Western Whitehouse at San Mateo Point in California. During his life, he has designed numerous defense and commercial systems and products in both the hardware and software disciplines as well as managed many product development projects. His last 10 years before retiring were dedicated to training, mentoring and aiding technical leaders in managing projects and people. He also spent time as a technical investigator, investigating patent infringement claims and acting as an expert witness in court cases involving development processes in both hardware and software development projects. Along with Warren Yates, he developed the 'Control-Feedback-Abort Loop' concept for problem solution analysis being used in a number of high-tech companies to aid in determining how people will use products to solve problems. He and his wife presently live in Colorado Springs, Colorado writing books, doing research on high-tech development and historical events, analyzing present international events and providing consulting assistance to up and coming design engineers in managing their teams. He is author of several books on business management and historical subjects such as 'The Barbarians Guide to Management' (2012), 'The First Real Christmas' (2012), 'Amateurs With Egos' (2013), and 'Trouble on the Grand Canal' (2013).
