Roland Cousins

Born and raised in the heart of downtown St.Louis, MO. I My challenging experiences motivated me to strive to become an uncommon man. Having a learning disability and barely graduated from highschool left me with many struggles; until I realized that life kicks you but you must kick back and embrace the hardness, thrust yourself in challenges and overcoming fears. This led me to graduated college and further attaining my masters in Theological Studies. I also commissioned as an officer in the United States Army.

Through these achievments I now see new struggles that arised in which I myself noticed in the corparate work environment, that every job I worked had a social negative pattern to them, in which negative components that create a toxic work environment, such as gossip/slandering, opposing innovation, micro managing from leaders, the negative effects of comparing ourselves to each other, and living an unhealthy physical lifestyle. These obstacles are some of the main reasons why we have toxic environments. I wish to share and discuss stratagies to improve toxic work environments.
