One of only a handful of African Americans to earn a PhD in entomology, Dr. Sammy Ramsey is an inspirational science leader and communicator who has defied the odds to achieve his dreams and is a testament to the power of grit, determination, and an unwavering commitment to one\u2019s purpose. When people said he didn\u2019t have what it took to make his mark in entomology, he proved them wrong by making a breakthrough discovery in the field of bee research \u2014 one that could potentially reverse a devastating pandemic in bee populations. And when people told him he didn\u2019t \u201clook\u201d like a scientist, he remained true to himself and redefined what a scientist could look like. Dr. Ramsey has mastered the art of unconventional thinking to arrive at innovative solutions to some of the most significant challenges shaping the future of our society and teaches organizations and individuals how they can do the same as they address their most-pressing challenges in business and life head-on. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
