Dear Hannah,
My name is Derrick.
I have one purpose today.
I want to tell people who I am, and what I do, hope, and dream about ...
I am a standup storyteller.
I use spoken word (poetry), rapping, teaching, oration, singing, writing, producing, and directing to cast hopeful visions of creative, robust solutions to the problems of our existing state.
Let's say that another way.
I want to challenge and change long-standing traditions.
Tradition begins and ends with change.
Everything must change - and STAY changED.
Change begins with me and the renewing of my mind.
It continues through my efforts to disciple – that is, to equip others to equip others.
I renew my mind through conversations - in classrooms, churches, conferences, city council meetings, concert halls, chat rooms, and cyphers.
I am on a journey that will lead me to facilitate a kind of conversation that is inspired by my renewal experiences ...
... one that puts all these conversation venues on the same menu - feel me?
Let me share my journey's progress over the last year ...
Love,
Daddy

About Derrick Brown (Principal Consultant)
I am Keisha's husband, and Hannah's father.
My *other* passion is empowering people via methods that balance skill & will, analysis & synthesis, ideas & execution, and activity & achievement.
I am the product of my mentoring relationships, peacemaking (and peacekeeping), and problem-solving ability.
I am a publisher, filmmaker, executive coach & registered mediator with engineering degrees from Clemson and Georgia Tech.
My education began when I finished school.
After school, I enrolled in a lifelong curriculum that includes the following classes ...
- ministry (serving people)
- entrepreneurship (developing solutions that serve people)
- stewardship (taking care of relationships, possessions, talents, body, mind, and time)
- literacy (reading & writing skills)
- numeracy (math skills)
- language (communication skills)
- self-expression (sharing "who you are")
- self-identity (knowing "who you are")
- analysis & synthesis (solving problems & sharing solutions)
KnowledgeBase is a ministry that has evolved from wisdom earned through lessons learned.
I want to share this wisdom to build teams of "triple threat" fellows - mentors, mediators, and problem solvers.
We will collaborate in simple, powerful ways that allow us to help people.
I now know that power is work done efficiently (with wise and skillful use of resources, interests, communication, and expertise).
