Process feedback with a strainer, not a sponge | Shanita Williams | TEDxAmoskeagMillyard

Learning and development leader Dr. Shanita Williams explores what happens when feedback is continuously absorbed like a sponge. She asks us to consider a more selective, and perhaps far more productive, way to process the feedback we receive and, ultimately decide to keep. At the core of all her work, Dr. Shanita Williams is most concerned about the human experience and how to help others live life without limits.

Shanita has extensive experience and has been creating learning experiences that increase knowledge, change behavior, and drive employee growth and development at all organizational levels for over a decade.

Knowing the daily challenges mothers face when trying to balance work, school, and family, Shanita conducted researched called, “She Made It,” where she explored the lived experiences of working mothers as students. The research revealed powerful stories of triumph and resilience, which became the inspiration to create a platform to explore these experiences more formally. In 2016, she became the CEO and Founder of Momploydent Inc., a non-profit organization committed to helping working mothers excel academically.
