As a principal of a middle school, I sought Dr. Ellis’ services to encourage and motivate 6-8 grade underserved students. He designed a training to support efforts in identifying their success by planning and working towards achieving goals to accomplish desired success. Ninety-eight percent of the students at the school received reduced or free lunch and 100% were minority. It was a huge benefit for this demographic of students to see and hear from a successful man who looked like them. Students were inspired and gained tools from Dr. Ellis to move them towards a path that was conducive to establishing the necessary steps towards achieving future personal and professional success.
