ITBOM™ Training & Consulting
E-Learning, Keynotes & Consulting around Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion in A Modern Workplace
Shari Dunn, Author, Educator, Keynote Speaker
Shari brings Her Unique Approach Rooted in History & Focused on the Present and the Future
Attorney, author, educator, keynote speaker, news anchor, CEO, professor, thinker, and agent of change.
Shari is an innovator, educator, and thinker helping organizations and individuals "change their thinking and their lives/organizations."
Shari has a degree in Philosophy and believes, as Carl Jung is alleged to have said, that "until we make the unconscious conscious, it will direct our lives, and we will call it fate."
A former television journalist with over a decade of on-air experience, Shari brings a rare dual lens to her work, as both a trained attorney and a seasoned media insider. She has been featured in TIME, Fast Company, Bloomberg, and the Wall Street Journal, and her communication frameworks are still in use more than 20 years after she first developed them.
A national keynote speaker and the author of a Harper Collins-published book, Shari’s proprietary methodology, Presence, Not Performance™, trains leaders to move beyond performative delivery and speak with real power, authenticity, and clarity.
