Ken Williams Biography
As the Founder of Unfold The Soul, Ken Williams works exclusively with K-12 School Leaders and Superintendents to help them leverage the collective expertise of staff in new and more effective ways, enabling them to improve student learning results, deepen team and teacher capacity, leverage the collective talent of school staff, and deliver on the promise of Learning for ALL.
Williams shares his experience and expertise as a nationally recognized trainer, speaker, coach and consultant in leadership and school culture. A practitioner for nearly three decades, Williams led the improvement efforts at two schools by leveraging the Professional Learning Communities at Work process. Skilled in joining the why of the work to the how of the work, Williams is known for his powerful and engaging combinations of “heart, humor, and hammer.” He is an expert at helping schools build capacity in the collective commitments required of learning for all cultures.
Williams is the former principal of The Learning Academy at E. J. Swint in Jonesboro, Georgia, and Damascus Elementary School in Damascus, Maryland. His firsthand experience with transforming challenged schools translates into action-oriented presentations that inspire hope, create a clear vision, and offer practical strategies to those overwhelmed by challenges.
Williams earned a Bachelor of Arts from Morehouse College, and a Master of Science from the University of Bridgeport. He is the co-author of the bestseller, "Starting A Movement: Building Culture from the Inside-Out in Professional Learning Communities," "Creating Physical and Emotional Safety In Schools," and a contributing author of "Beyond Conversations About Race."
