"Celebrating Our Common Humanity":
Elodia Tate took Diversity 101 growing up with a family of blended
cultures of Caucasian, Hispanic & Native American. She has four
children who are African-American. She gives us a humorous glimpse
of her life, which inspired the best-selling book, "Open My Eyes,
Open My Soul".
Learn about her
amazing journey that took place when the idea to write the book took
shape. From the meeting with Yolanda King, daughter of Dr. Martin
Luther King Jr. and Coretta Scott King, to the interviews with celebrity
contributors and the serendipitous events that took place in between and
produced a book in print, just after ten months from start to finish.
Elodia chooses stories and poetry excerpts from the book that will touch
your audience, on an emotional level.
They will laugh, they will cry and they will be enlightened, to the
common threads of humanity that connect us all, making us the grand
human family that we are. Your group will walk away with a
different view of humanity and be empowered to embrace our diversity.
This is a
multi-media presentation.
*This presentation can be customized for churches emphasizing the
spiritual aspects, colleges relating to education or diversity in the
workplace. It is also a wonderful topic for women's groups for an
empowerment topic on achieving your dreams.

"Personality Style Communication"
There was a common
thread in the stories, in "Open My Eyes, Open My Soul", where
perspectives were changed as the results of a defining moment and that
thread was communication.
This workshop
explores the verbal and non-verbal ways we can better communicate with
one another, in order to cross over those barriers and find the mutual
ties we have to humanity and become a more productive unit.
