This year’s Commencement Speaker is Michael Bonner, disruptive innovator and entrepreneur.
Bonner is a renowned leader and performance booster who is a trailblazer in leadership development and organizational culture. He is a dynamic keynote speaker as seen on The Ellen Show, NBC Nightly News, and Time for Kids, and a recent recipient of Atlanta’s 40 under 40 awards. He is the CEO of Bonnerville, a business that promotes the value of self-care, and a highly respected team member at the famed Ron Clark Academy.
Bonner empowers leaders to build genuine relationships and establish a positive organizational culture, vision, and team development. His seminars challenge listeners to reflect, strategize, and execute in order to increase their efficiency in the workplace and personal areas.
