Welcome!
I’m so glad that you have stopped by. My name is Jane Boyd and I’m the Founder of 45 Conversations.
At the most basic level, 45 Conversations is a media and education company. We love using digital media, tools and online collaboration in a multitude of ways to support the work we do. And through face-to-face professional development retreats, customized training and solution-oriented consulting we help people, organizations and communities achieve the goals that matter the very most to them.
We offer programs and services for two main audiences:
- The Early Childhood Education Sector (Early Childhood Educators, Early Learning & Care Programs and Child Care Programs)
- Business, Community & Government
Our areas of focus include:
- Leadership
- Professional Development for Early Childhood Educators
- Retreats for Entrepreneurs, Educators, Community Development and more.
- Community Building & Economic Development
- Personal Development
- Employee Wellbeing
- Community Wellbeing
- Work-Life Harmony
- Living With Intention
- Early Learning & Child Care in the Community
- Workplace Child Care
- Teacher Training & Professional Development
- Home Schooling & UnSchooling
We work hard to address the issues that really matter. And to offer innovative solutions, customized consulting, online professional development and face-to-face training and retreats that truly make a difference.
45 Conversations has an array of collaborative partners that I have brought together. These talented folks are based around the world and offer a wealth of expertise and knowledge in the fields of business, education, marketing and so much more.
From designing, developing and overseeing workplace child care programs to implementing regional multi-stakeholder needs assessments — we work with our clients and partners to bring about the change they seek, the education the require or the consulting solutions that are necessary. Our approach allows us to customize our services and solutions for each client and project that we work on. From designing unique mixed philosophy approaches for application in a range of education settings to working with c-suite executives on issues related to employee engagement and leadership — we understand what it takes to get people both engaged and invested.
We add in the right touches of online collaboration, social media outreach and digital marketing strategies.
So — What Has My Attention These Days?
I’m strongly influenced by real people and local/global relationships. I love the amazing things can come from using social media and online collaborative tools. And from face-to-face conversations.
I believe in the power of connection, collaboration and storytelling. Especially when that connection, collaboration and storytelling empowers people, communities and organizations to do good — personally and professionally.
Partnering with product developers, events, business, community and educators; I’m constantly developing real & online conversations and partnerships that build awareness, drive interaction/collaboration levels and influence the way people think about the issues that really matter — in business, education and community.
I’m also fascinated by the role of story in our lives. Especially in the way it influences how we live and work. I do a lot of work in this area through GeniusShared; which I am partnered in with Liz Strauss. Through GeniusShared Press we recently collaborated on the publication of Liz’s new book — Anything You Put Your Mind To.
I’m committed to growing 45 Conversations into a company that makes a true difference to everyone who experiences the products and services we deliver. I’m guided by intention and generosity in all aspects of the work we do.
I attend many conferences where I’m often asked to speak or lead workshops.
Thank You for Being Here!
People and relationships matter so much to me. I truly mean it when I say I’m glad you are here. I would love to know how I can be of service to you as I expand the horizons of 45 Conversations. Please do connect with me @BoydJane.
