One of those pictures that captures the imagination and is perfectly complemented by the Bob Marley lines underneath. It is a new day. Enjoy as you rise.
On The Rise
About ivonprefontaine
In keeping with bell hooks and Noam Chomsky, I consider myself a public and dissident intellectual. Part of my work is to move beyond (transcend) institutional dogmas that bind me to defend freedom, raising my voice to be heard on behalf of those who seek equity and justice in all their forms. I completed my PhD in Philosophy of Leadership Studies at Gonzaga University, Spokane, WA. My dissertation and research was how teachers experience becoming teachers and their role as leaders. I focus on leading, communicating, and innovating in organizations. This includes mindfuful servant-leadership, World Cafe events, Appreciative Inquiry, and expressing one's self through creativity. I offer retreats, workshops, and presentations that can be tailored to your organzations specific needs. I published peer reviewed articles about schools as learning organizations, currere as an ethical pursuit, and hope as an essential element of adult eductaion. I published three poems and am currently preparing my poetry to publish as an anthology of poetry. I present on mindful leadership, servant leadership, schools as learning organizations, how teachers experience becoming teachers, assessement, and critical thinking. I facilitate mindfulness, hospitality retreats. and World Cafe Events using Appreciative Inquiry. I am writing and researching about various forms of leadership, how teachers inform and form their identity as a particular teacher, schools as learning organizations, hope and its anticipatory relationship with the future, and hope as an essential element in learning.12 responses »

Really lovely…thank you for sharing this with us Ivon.
You are welcome Mimi. The radio station I listen to plays a lot of Bob Marley music which always resonates with me.
I love Bob! Thanks for sharing.
I get to listen to him pretty regularly on a little radio station here in Edmonton called CKUA.
We should have him hear then in San Diego. I don’t know if we do? http://www.segmation.com
They are on the Internet at http://www.ckua.com/. They serve up a pretty eclectic batch of music. The morning show and the afternoon drive show tend to have more variety, but they have specialty shows i.e. the Blues, old Rock, Jazz, alt-country, and classical. Give it a try.
The green pail just draws you in….
It does fit well as the centre piece of the picture.
I like it 🙂
Thank you.
yes…true that..!
It is.
