SPEAKING
Barbara Ann Jacques, PhD
TEDx Speaker | Educator | Systems Thinker
What If the Way We've Always Done Things Is Limiting What's Possible?
For more than 30 years, I've worked within criminal justice and higher education, observing how assumptions, decisions, and established practices shape the systems we create.
I've seen how easily familiar approaches become accepted truths, even when new information invites us to reconsider them.
Through engaging stories, unexpected connections, and questions that challenge conventional thinking, I invite audiences to examine what they believe they know, recognize the larger systems influencing their decisions, and consider what they might create differently.
My presentations bring together professional experience, systems thinking, and a lifelong curiosity about human behavior and interconnectedness.
