Who is Dr. Shree Walker?
Society often thinks people are products of their environment. As a young woman growing up in a poverty-stricken single-parent home, Dr. Shree Walker refused to be a victim of circumstance. Being the eldest of six children and the backbone of her family, she has been faced with many obstacles. Without any heroes to look to, she had to become her own. Dr. Walker was determined not to live as a victim or a statistic. Dr. Walker is an author, educator, and motivational speaker who provided excellent professional development for life-learners. She can relate to others through the pain, the courage, the conquering, and the reality that there is a life after pain. Dr. Walker came to this planet to change the world.
Join us for the general session keynote address on the morning of Thursday, March 6. Themed "Resiliency: The Power of One," this session will help you uncover your conscious and unconscious biases related to diverse learners and provide tools for a transformative mindset shift. Dr. Walker will motivate and inspire you to transform negative thoughts into positive ones and shift your perspective of yourself and others. You'll learn to analyze how thoughts and emotions influence decision-making, practice self-awareness, appreciate different perspectives, and address biases and stereotypes. Additionally, you'll gain strategies for managing trauma-related issues, develop emotional intelligence, and build resilience. Don’t miss this opportunity to enhance your professional growth and make a lasting impact.
