285 Helen Benjamin: Education Changes the Life Trajectory of Every Person

  1. 285 Helen Benjamin: Education Changes the Life Trajectory of Every Person Gail Zelitzky and Catherine Marienau 29:58

As an educational leader and mentor, Dr. Helen Benjamin tells stories about

growing up in the segregated South, living and working in two worlds—Black

and White, and helping younger Black professionals navigate their CEO roles

in community colleges. In semi-Retirement, Helen leads HSV Consulting, Inc,

works with “dozens of colleges, boards, and CEOs to advance student-

centered organizational and leadership improvement,” and continues writing

to preserve African American history. Helen finds that at age 74 she is in

“the best place I’ve ever been in my life—smarter, wiser, thriftier, and more

relaxed.”

No one can tell the story of our lived experience better than

we can.
