THE POWER OF POSITIVE IMPACT WITH TECHNOLOGY
"Our recent professional development day on radical empathy was truly amazing. From the very beginning, Bryan’s captivating speaking had our staff focused and engaged in the subject matter. The sessions were interactive, blending thoughtful discussions with practical strategies that can be applied in our classrooms. What stood out most to me was the genuine participation of our staff. Teachers participated in the activities, shared personal insights, and connected with one another. This training reminded us that empathy is not only essential for our students’ growth, but also for building stronger, more supportive relationships among colleagues. It was one of the most impactful professional development experiences we’ve had, and we left feeling inspired, connected, and ready to bring these lessons into our daily practice."
