Judy Ryan is founder and CEO of LifeWork Systems, an award-winning performance management company specializing in culture transformation frameworks since 2002. Her organization received the Vanguard Award for Innovation from the St. Louis Mental Health Board for her unconventional model and the measurable results she achieved when applying it to large scale projects. She is a recognized thought leader in applied behavioral science systems that impact deep culture change for exceptional outcomes. Her culture models are consistent with today’s rapid speed of change, diversity and complexity and trends towards agile principles and practices in business and technology. Judy is the author of “What’s the Deal with Workplace Culture Change?” (Published by People Tested Media in 2015), a columnist on ‘Emotional Intelligence’ in The Women’s Journals nationally since 2005, a columnist on ‘The Extraordinary Workplace’ in St. Louis Small Business Monthly since 2012 and a columnist for ‘Hispanic Leadership’ for Autentico since 2019. She has approximately 200 published articles to date. She is also a systems developer and integrator, consultant, trainer, coach, and keynote presenter, with guest appearances on podcasts, radio and television. Judy is responsible for creating a fully scalable, digital platform and support processes within her framework, for distributing Teal organizational development skills to all people and sustaining them within an organization, for greater emotional intelligence, as it is highly needed in this period of globalization and digital transformation, when many people are seeking to successfully navigate 21st century techno-human ecosystems. She understands that to keep current with the agility of business, people must be equally agile in every way, including within heuristic, cross-functioning teamwork. Judy Ryan’s purpose is to create a world in which all people love their lives. When Beethoven saw a piano, he saw a symphony. When Judy Ryan meets people, she sees the unseen beauty and truth beneath the surface and uncovers it. And that truth – the one that’s really happening under the surface – is what we all need to see. The old ways of understanding human systems are not working anymore – the way of superior versus inferior or management versus employee or parent versus child. They never did (not without lasting, serious, negative side effects). And our world is suffering because of this; we need a powerful, positive and sustainable transformation.

Meet Ikhlas, a strong and resilient woman who has faced numerous challenges in her life. She possesses the ability to remain mentally and emotionally stable under challenging circumstances. Being raised by a mother who had to fight to care for her kids daily, Ikhlas understands the significance of standing up for oneself in the face of adversity. Ikhlas had always been a fighter. Growing up in Sudan, she faced many challenges early on in life. She watched her mother struggle to keep the family together, and her mother's resilience inspired her to become the strong, resilient woman she is today. As a young woman, Ikhlas wanted to make a difference. She wanted to use her experiences to help others who were going through similar struggles. So, she decided to immigrate to the United States, where she could start a new life and share her story with others. But the road to success was a challenging one. Ikhlas faced many obstacles, from learning a new language to finding a job and making new friends. She worked in restaurants and stores with a minimal wage of $2 per hour, waiting for the lengthy immigration procedures to support her family back home. But through it all, she remained resilient and determined to succeed. Today, Ikhlas is a successful businesswoman and motivational speaker. She uses her experiences to inspire others to never give up, no matter how difficult the situation may seem. She knows that life is full of challenges, but she also knows that with resilience and determination, anything is possible. Ikhlas's story is a testament to the power of the human spirit. It shows us that no matter how challenging the road may be, we can overcome any obstacle if we dare to keep moving forward. And with Ikhlas by our side, we can all unlock our highest potential and achieve our dreams, no matter what life throws our way. Ikhlas serves as the Women's Empowerment Coordinator at New American Pathways. In addition to her role, she is a public speaker, writer, coach, and advocate for gender equality, immigrant issues, and youth empowerment in addition to writing her book on “The Power of Resilience Woman”. Ikhlas has also worked with the UN and non-profits in Displacement Camps in Darfur and is currently working with immigrant communities in the United States. Ikhlas represented Sudan as a peace delegate at the One Young World conference in Columbia. She also attended the Generation Change Conference in Istanbul and the Dalai Lama Interfaith Dialogue in India as a representative of Sudan. She was a fellow of the US Institute in Washington, DC. In 2018, Ikhlas was honored with the title of Global Goodwill Ambassador from the GGWA. Ikhlas will share her experiences of overcoming adversity through her journey in Sudan and as an immigrant in the United States.

At just 25 years old, first and foremost Lance Constantine is a motivational speaker, which he has been doing for over five years. It has been his passion to have a "voice for the voiceless" as well as training others to do what he does through Speakers University (Speakers Academy), which he founded back in March 2012. Although the business was established in 2012, the idea of ‘Speakers University’ started in late 2011. His message to his students and audience members is “I AM REVOLUTION.” This is also the title of his book, which he describes as an “empowerment tool written in a poetic format.” Through these poems in the book “one can discover identity, true purpose, and also the restoration of what it looks like to operate as a righteous nation.” From speaking with Constantine it is evident that he is really striving to do something great, which he equates it to being a part of his DNA. While growing up he had a lot of contributors along the way, which he gives credit as helping him to be the man that he is today. A significant part of Constantine’s life has been Marco Constantine, his father. His dad diligently spoke to him about the family lineage, the power of his last name and its legacy left by his forefathers. The name “Constantine means to be firm in purpose” and his family is very purpose-driven, including his grandfather who was the very first councillor in his region (during the 1940s, 1950s). He had helped people in the community of St. Elizabeth area down in Jamaica. Overall leadership is very important in his family. In fact, his uncle bought a book for Lance in New York (the last edition) and it accounts for the history of the Constantine family going back to the 10th century. Lance is trying to carry on the legacy of his forefathers. Lance also accredits his mentor Johnnie Williams III (brother to former Toronto Raptors Jerome “Junkyard Dog” Williams) who was like a big brother to Lance (although Lance also has an older brother). It was very encouraging that “someone of that calibre” saw something in Lance when he was on a guest panel a few years back. He also looks up to the way his Pastor Orim Meikle carries himself. Constantine finds that he mainly works with a lot of young males, which parallels to the fact that he had a lot of male figures in his life. Constantine having mentors growing up “springboards” back to him giving to the community through his powerful speaking. Not everyone who writes can speak well and vice versa, but Lance has managed to conquer both. “I love to write, especially poetry,” he says, but he also enjoys writing stories and fables. In college he averaged a 92% in his English classes.
