Keynote: Education - The M.A.N.D.A.T.O.R.Y. Mission
Monday February 24, 2025 10:00am - 11:30am CST
This interactive keynote will talk about the importance of balancing our leading and learning processes. Through a creative approach toward self-awareness, and autonomy we can begin to teach children to believe in themselves and embrace challenges. Through greater degrees of reinforcement and positive interactions, we can build others up and improve morale in the setting - while making it a mandatory effort. Dr. Kimberly P. Johnson will show how we can elevate our early learners and their families toward academic success in the setting. In addition, we can elevate ourselves to believe that we indeed are creating a space where everyone can thrive!!
