Patrice Buckner Jackson to Speak at OTC Commencement

Dr. Patrice Buckner Jackson, known in her community as Dr. PBJ, gives educators the strategies for accomplishing purposeful work without burnout and will provide the commencement address at the Ogeechee Technical College graduation ceremony slated for May 14 at 7:00 pm at Hanner Fieldhouse.

“We are incredibly excited to welcome Dr. PBJ to Ogeechee Tech,” said Christy Rikard, Vice President for Student Affairs. “I’ve had the privilege of knowing and working alongside her for many years, and what sets her apart is not just her expertise, but her heart for people. She has a unique ability to connect, inspire, and challenge individuals to pursue purpose without losing themselves in the process.”

Dr. PBJ is an educator of almost 25 years and an Executive Coach for more than 10 years. She holds a doctoral degree in Education Administration, served in executive leadership at colleges and universities, and facilitated leadership training as a faculty member for the Center for Creative Leadership.  Dr. Jackson worked in higher education at many levels, from student assistant to President’s Cabinet and is the recipient of several professional awards and accolades.

Dr. Jackson founded EduCare Training and Consulting, LLC, through a purpose of pouring into those who pour out so much. Much of her work is specifically focused on equipping and refreshing educators.  Compassionate work can carry a high price tag: your mind, body, spirit, and relationships may be in distress as you serve the needs of others.  Dr. Jackson leads her community to serve well without paying an ultimate price. 

Dr. PBJ is the creator and host of the Disrupting Burnout podcast as well as the author of the Amazon best-seller, Disrupting Burnout: The professional woman’s LIFELINE to finding purpose.
