Jolanda Jones has honed her public
speaking skills for various businesses, organizations, groups and
universities through Jolanda Jones Consulting and as part of the
Life's
Playbook for Success, which specifically targeted groups of
secondary school students, educators, and administrators across
the country.
Life's Playbook was the program through which VERIZON encouraged
members of the Academic All-American Hall of Fame, which VERIZON
underwrote to share their wisdom and insights with America's youth.
Jolanda entered into a first-of-its-kind contract, with the recommendation
of Dr. Rod Paige; former Superintendent of the Houston Independent
School District (HISD) and former United States Secretary of Education,
as a special consultant to eight of the district's lowest-performing
schools; addressing urgent topics and inspiring underperforming
students and time-challenged educators. |
