2025 Conference  Keynote Speaker: 

Arel Moodie

Session Title: Creating the Ultimate Educational Environment
Session Description: In times of challenge and change, the strength of an educational environment isn’t defined solely by curriculum or resources, it’s shaped by the people who make up the community. Success isn’t just about what is being taught, but who is learning, teaching, and growing together.
When team development is overlooked, collaboration can give way to competition, turning peers into rivals instead of partners. But when relationships are strengthened, schools and organizations transform. Motivation rises, direction becomes clear, and individuals unite to tackle challenges side by side.
In this interactive, humor-filled, and inspirational presentation, former Disney+ host and lifelong entrepreneur Arel shows how to move from an “us versus them” mindset to a culture of connection, where every voice is valued and every person contributes to success. By delivering an unforgettable shared experience, Arel leaves teams energized, inspired and ready to build the ultimate educational environment where everyone thrives.

Biography: Growing up in the Brooklyn projects, witnessing people being murdered and imprisoned, Arel Moodie learned early on how people around you can either hold you back or lift you up. This insight drove him to become one of only a handful of people worldwide certified in Adult Development Theory.
Today, Arel helps organizations Build People Power™, transforming how teams work and win together through a breakthrough approach to human development. Through his work with one of the world’s leading ADT theorists, he discovered what felt like an instruction manual for human potential—and has dedicated himself to making it accessible to leaders everywhere. 

A tech co-founder of Talkadot, keynote speaker, and bestselling author, Arel has shown leaders from the White House to Fortune 500 companies how to create cultures where everyone wins together.

But Arel’s most powerful message comes from experience: We don’t build our personal power in isolation—we do it shoulder to shoulder with those who want to bring our potential to life.
