LOS ANGELES, June 11, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- IC Places,
Inc. (OTC Pink:PNCH), IC Places is pleased to announce, after a
great deal preparation, it will shoot the premier episode of
UnCommon Denominator on June
13th 2014 from its sound stage at Empire Media Center in
Glendale CA. The show, hosted by Steven Samblis, takes a modern day business man,
guided by a mastermind group of business moguls, who set out each
week armed only with an introduction to meet, and discover within
the highest achievers on the planet, what made them successful and
to find in them a UnCommon thread of greatness.
The show is the first in-house production by IC Places which
will be a part of the premier launch lineup on Imagination TV.
The premier episode guest will be Best Selling Author and
founder of The Human Potential Project, Chris Majer.
He is a modern day entrepreneur, innovator, and adventurer who
has trekked the wilds of Africa,
Alaska, and the Amazon. He
is a Rugby player with a Master Degree who has taught hand-to-hand
combat to Marines, performance principles to the Special Forces,
and leadership, management, strategy and innovation to the
corporate world.
Chris' work evolved out of his early days as a competitive rugby
player. In 1981 he began by working exclusively with athletes
to isolate and reproduce the elements of consistent winning
performance. His success with individual athletes and teams
caught the attention of the military and he and his firm spent
nearly three years working with the Army to design new ways of
training soldiers. This work culminated in a year long
classified project with the Army's Special Forces.
In the mid 80s the firm began working with corporate clients,
again generating remarkable results. Under Chris' leadership,
the firm grew into a skilled team of professionals working
globally. Chris was the principal architect of
transformational projects for corporate clients such as AT&T,
Cargill, Microsoft, Intel, EDS, Capital One, Amgen, and
Allianz Life of North America.
Chris has spent over two decades developing innovative and
highly effective approaches for enabling organizations of any size
to maximize their performance. This transformational body of
work is called Commitment Based Management.
He is the author of 20 white papers and The Power to Transform –
Passion, Power, and Purpose in Daily Life, which was published by
Rodale.
Chris earned a MPA in Organizational Development from the
University of Washington. He also studied extensively with
philosopher Dr. Fernando Flores,
known for his work on the foundations of commitment-based
management. In addition he has been an Aikodo student and
spent time with various martial arts teachers.
He has been featured in Time, People and Esquire
and has appeared on the Today Show, Charlie Rose, and the MacNeil/Lehrer
Report. Chris has also been a keynote speaker at venues
around the world.

Mind Board that will meet with Steve for each show and send him out
with an introduction to the business icons.
Through Steve's unique approach he brings the viewer's back each
week with another tip "'keys to greatness" found within the Moguls

Mogul the traits that stands out within them that is the key to
their greatness. The show will look to find those UnCommon traits
that can be found within all these high achievers, that thing we

This is a reality show with real people, real moguls, and real
icons with real answers.

have learned from and about these high achievers throughout the
series and how anyone can apply the lessons to business models and
personal achievement goals. The book will be available as an
eBook at www.MyImaginationTV.com the day of the final episode.
The new weekly reality based TV show is a modern day telling
similar to the life path of Napoleon Hill as he set out to create
the greatest self-help book ever written, "Think and Grow
Rich".
