Adventures into Attitude
with Danny Walker, MA, M Div
Mr. Walker has gained recognition as a dynamic, nationally known speaker and trainer. Considered a gifted presenter and humorist, his presentations use techniques that inspire and facilitate change in corporate cultures, as well as, individual attitudes.
As part of our Guest Speaker series, Mr. Walker certainly changed a few attitudes in our student body! He spoke of the importance of thinking and saying the things we want as outcomes in our lives. He shared stories of how he has planted seeds of change in the hearts and minds of many. Here are a few comments from students during the post-lecture reflection:
The mind is powerful.
What you think really matters.
The most powerful thing is one single thought.
Your mind does not know the difference between
what is real and what is imagined.
Your mind can't reverse a negative... so speak in the positive.
Danny now serves as the President of Rose of Texas Hospice. Prior to his last 20 years working in Hospice, Mr. Walker taught at Louisiana State University for 18 years and also was an Assistant to the President of Louisiana Tech University for two years. He served four years as Special Advisor to Governor Charles “Buddy” Roemer of Louisiana and Chairman of the “Governor’s Special Commission on Student Loans”. In addition, he established “The Partnership for a Drug-Free Louisiana”.
He received his Masters of Sociology from Texas Christian University and a Masters of Divinity from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth.
Danny currently resides just north of Austin, TX, with his wife, Diana.
The CP community is grateful to experience his passion and wisdom!
