A skilled facilitator and trainer\, she pushes leaders to see the biggest obstacles that stand in their way\, dig into the hot issues that hold them back and find the courage to lead effectively. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresenter: Danny Tyrrell\nVice President 0f Pinnacle Leadership & Team Development \nDanny has dedicated the past 15 years to leading diverse teams across various industries\, including international travel and health & wellness technology.

Ross\nDr. Ross’s presentation will challenge the Call Out Culture of social justice movements and academic spaces in order to build a united human rights movement. The teach in will cover 5 topics: 1) Understanding what Calling In/Calling Out is; 2) Exploring why people should care about building a human rights movement through Calling In; 3) Discussing what it feels like to call people in; 4) Examining what Calling In looks like; 5) Learning where\, when and how to use Calling In techniques in the future. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresenter: Loretta J. Ross\nActivist\, Public Intellectual\, Professor \nLoretta’s activism began at 16 when she was tear-gassed at a demonstration as a first-year student at Howard University in 1970. She was one of the first African American women to direct a rape crisis center in the 1970’s\, where she used her own story of sexual assault to facilitate a conversation with incarcerated rapists\, teaching them Black feminist theory. \nAs part of a 50-year history in social justice activism\, she was the national coordinator of the SisterSong Women of Color Reproductive Justice Collective from 2005–2012 and co-created the theory of Reproductive Justice in 1994. \nRoss’s mentor\, the legendary C.T. Vivian\, told her when she started her job\, “When you ask people to give up hate\, you have to be there for them when they do.” And so\, she was. She monitored hate crimes\, accompanied Floyd Cochran\, national spokesman for Aryan Nation\, on his atonement tour and taught anti racism to some whose families were members of the KKK. \nRoss was national co-director of the April 25\, 2004\, March for Women’s Lives in Washington D.C.\, the largest protest march in U.S. history at that time with 1.15 million participants. She founded the National Center for Human Rights \nShe is a 2022 recipient of the Alnoba Moment of Truth Award for Leadership for Gender Equity and the McArthur Prize\, as well as a 2023 Inductee to the National Women’s Hall of Fame \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDo We Have The Tools To Abandon Fossil Fuels?\nTransitioning society from polluting\, single-use fossil fuels to renewable energy combined with battery storage is one of the greatest challenges\, and wealth-creation opportunities\, of our time. Most people do not realize how rapidly clean technology solutions are progressing to harness and store abundant wind\, solar and hydro power. \nTo date\, the Inflation Reduction Act has unleashed more than $700 billion in U.S. clean energy investments in mining and manufacturing\, positioning America to compete with China’s historical dominance of solar\, wind and electric vehicle manufacturing. \nFrom his front row seat in the clean energy industry\, ReVision Energy co-founder Phil Coupe is witnessing astonishing clean energy progress that was unimaginable 20 years ago when he started the 100% employee-owned company. Phil’s talk will emphatically answer one of the most urgent questions facing humanity\, while providing insights on where the next trillion dollars of wealth are being created in the U.S. economy. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresenter: Phil Coupe\nCo-Founder\, ReVision Energy \nAs co-founder and aspirational visionary\, Phil focuses on leadership\, business strategy\, communications and the national security implications of over-reliance on finite fossil fuels. Prior to the launch of ReVision Energy\, he worked as a journalist in Washington\, DC before helping start up a business that twice made the Inc. 500 List of Fastest-Growing Companies in America. To match growth with purpose\, Phil immersed himself in the early movement toward corporate social responsibility and socially responsible business practices\, leading the startup to win awards for its “Community Focus” program that invested in solutions to homelessness\, at-risk youth and environmental degradation. \nOther recognition included a Volunteer of the Year Award presented by former Sec. of State Colin Powell\, the Community Hero Award from City Year Washington\, Business Leader for the Environment Award from the Sierra Club and more recently the CEO Environmental Leadership Award from Alnoba that recognized ReVision’s co-founders. \nAt ReVision Energy Phil engineered the cause-related marketing strategy and relationship-based sales approach that helped the company quickly grow from a garage startup to one of the most respected clean energy companies in New England. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nStrong girls. Strong women. Stronger world.\nJoin this conversation as two brave and brilliant Moment of Truth Award recipients share lessons from their work to keep girls and women safe\, strong and on paths for success. Their experiences range from Maryam Montague’s groundbreaking work on a new menstrual solution to tackle period poverty\, with a focus on the global south\, and her program to keep girls in school and stop underage marriages in Morocco and Syria to Christa Big Canoe’s service as Lead Commission Counsel for Canada’s National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls\, as well as her current work to for truth and accountability on behalf of their families. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresenter: Maryam Montague\nFounder\, Project Soar \nMaryam Montague is trying to stop child marriage of teen girls in Morocco and Syria\, as well as advance menstrual rights using a new menstrual solution\, she and her colleagues developed called the Soar Hurya. \nIn 2013\, she created Project Soar in Morocco and later added sites in Syria and Uganda. Project Soar envisions a world where every marginalized teen girl knows her value\, voice\, body\, rights and path – and seeks to empower teen girls to be the leaders of today and tomorrow. They provide empowerment coaching through a 25-workshop curriculum based on neuroscience\, sustainable menstrual health kits\, and advocacy training on teen girl issues. It’s free for the girls\, but to take part\, they must pledge to stay in school. \nPrior to founding Project Soar\, Montague had a 25-year career as a humanitarian aid worker\, including stints at the National Democratic Institute\, an international nonprofit group. She worked on training women to run for office and prisoner rights among other issues. \nThe non-profit program started at Montague’s boutique hotel\, Peacock Pavilions\, that she and her husband built on an eight-acre olive grove on the outskirts of Marrakech\, with the mission statement\, Be Good\, Make Good\, Do Good. \nTheir replicable\, scalable model has allowed Project Soar to scale to 138+ chapters nationwide in Morocco and was successfully piloted in five sites in Uganda and four sites in Northwest Syria. To date\, Project Soar has provided 24\,925 hours of empowerment. With an active network of 6\,338+ Soar Girls\, Project Soar is growing the teen girl movement. Their results are impressive. \n\n100% of Soar girls plan to go to the next grade level\n89% passed the school year\nLess than 1% became child brides\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresenter: Christa Big Canoe\nLegal Advocacy Director\, Aboriginal Legal Services\, Toronto\, Canada \nRight now\, four out of every five Indigenous American women are affected by violence\, and are murdered at rates more than 10 times the national average. By far the majority of those crimes are committed by individuals from outside the Native American community\, often falling through jurisdictional cracks. It’s a crisis that demands action–a crisis that prompted Christa Big Canoe to take the kind of bold action that leads to big impact. \nChrista is the Legal Advocacy Director for Aboriginal Legal Services (ALS)\, a nonprofit organization that works with the families of missing and murdered indigenous women (MMIW) navigate the legal system to find justice for their loved ones. \nIn 2017\, Christa was appointed Senior and then Lead Commission Council for Canada’s National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls. Christa took a two and a half year leave from her work at ALS to lead thirteen Indigenous lawyers\, twenty-six statement gatherers and a support team responsible for collecting truth from survivors and families. The testimonies from “truth finding gatherings” have created one of the largest evidentiary records in Canada. \nChrista also represented six of the seven families in the “Seven Youth Inquest” in Thunder Bay. This investigation of the deaths of seven Indigenous students resulted in 145 federal and provincial recommendations to improve accountability\, safety and education outcomes for Nishnawbe Aski Nation youths. While at Legal Aid Ontario\, she led the province-wide Aboriginal Justice Strategy aimed at removing barriers to the legal system for indigenous people. \nChrista’s unwavering courage to confront this critical issue and take action to bring about real change makes her an exceptional leader. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFrom One Man’s Mission to a Worldwide Movement for Clean Water – A Conversation with Doc Hendley\nPlease don’t tell Doc it can’t be done – because he will not rest until he finds a way to get water to the most in need and in the hardest places to reach in the midst of extreme conditions\, including war zones\, and natural disaster areas. \nDoc Hendley dreamed up the concept of Wine To Water while bartending and playing music in nightclubs around Raleigh\, NC. \nIn February 2004\, Doc held his first fundraiser. And by August\, he was living halfway around the globe in Sudan\, Africa installing water systems for victims of the government-supported genocide. His life would never be the same. After spending one year in Darfur\, Doc returned home. The haunting memories of what he had witnessed drove him to continue building the organization he started with that first fundraiser in a bar. Doc was determined to provide clean water for the world. \nIn 2007\, after working two jobs and volunteering his time for three years\, Doc launched Wine To Water. His dream of fighting the world’s water crisis became a reality. But that was just the beginning. In 2009\, Doc was named as a top ten CNN Hero for that year\, and the ripples continued to grow. Soon Doc was speaking to packed houses\, including two TEDx events and national media outlets. Thousands were inspired by his story and Wine To Water grew from one man’s mission into a movement for clean water. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresenter: Doc Hendley\nFounder\, Wine to Water \nDoc Hendley is the founder and president of Wine To Water\, a non-profit that radically transformed the process of bringing clean water to people in need anywhere in the world. \nA musician and former bartender\, Hendley launched Wine To Water in 2004 while bartending and playing music in nightclubs in Raleigh\, North Carolina. At that time\, he traveled to Darfur\, Sudan and with the money raised\, began installing water systems for victims of government-supported genocide. \nDoc is a frequent speaker\, and often leads Wine To Water filter build programs. Filter builds are hands-on\, socially responsible experiences for companies and organizations to assemble filters and make their own strides in alleviating the world’s water crisis. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT AFTERNOON TEACH INS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Top 5 Keys to High Performing Teams – The Pinnacle Model\nAt Pinnacle\, we believe strong leaders make stronger communities and high performing teams allow great leaders to have the greatest impact.

However\, research shows that the places in which we live\, work\, play\, grow\, and learn matter more for good health than access to health care and genetics combined. A new wave of development is sweeping cities in the Boston metro area. Using this development to transform neighborhoods presents one of the most significant opportunities of our time to improve the health of thousands of New Englanders. \nThe relationship between housing and health is complex.
