Passion. Enthusiasm. Inspiration. Leadership. BOLD ACTIONS. These are the words that immediately come to mind when you think of Donna Barr. Her practical, focused way of taking action in her own life, as well as inspiring action in the lives of others is what led her to create her signature coaching program BOLD ACTIONS(BA). It is an effective and positive life and business transformational development program that positions individuals, teams, and organizations to be empowered, and resilient as they create positive outcomes. BA begins with self-awareness and ends with bold actions, to drive positive change. She is a member of the renowned Les Brown Platinum Speakers and has been selected among the top 5 in “Communicate Your Way to Greatness”.
She brings over 20+ years of corporate experience as an IT professional and leader and 5 years as a 6-figure CEO of the Positive Deviant Group. Ms. Barr is an international speaker, Amazon best-selling author, and Life and Business Coach. She is a certified Project Manager Professional (PMP), and a Gallup-Certified Talent/Strengths Coach. She has a BS degree in Computer Science from Winston Salem State University and an MS in Information Systems and Technology from Johns Hopkins University. But what Donna believes is, that none of her formal education, compares to her degree in life, gained from transforming some of her most difficult challenges into her greatest opportunities. She is married to her ideal husband Edward Oakley, and they have a beautiful integrated family of 7 adult children and 7 grandchildren, whom she considers the best part of her life story.
