Don La Foucade - Checking in with Dr. B Episode 5
Not just to survive but to go on and thrive!
Don La Foucade is a Maxwell Leadership Certified Team Member who has been delivering inspirational talks and workshops around the Caribbean since 1999. Don has been the featured speaker at numerous graduations and achievement day exercises, has facilitated professional development workshops for school teachers and other audiences, including university students and lecturers and now offers all-day public speaking workshops to organizations. From 2011, Don hosted a series of youth workshops 9 of which were sponsored by the Republic Bank of Trinidad and Tobago with the 10th on the way - entitled “I Got This!”
Don serves on the board of United Way of Trinidad and Tobago, and supports the local United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in its ‘Citizen Security’ initiatives, particularly as they relate to the youth.
Don is often called “the Word Man”, and his love of the eagle is seen in the titles of his three books ( a 4th is on the way): “IN FULL FLIGHT!” which is also the name of his inspirational company, “FACING THE STORMS OF LIFE…IN FULL FLIGHT!” and the ‘In Full Flight Note+Book!’ which is a unique notebook and a book in one.
In sport, Don has coordinated national and international football championships. With his identical twin brother Dion, he was Director of the La Foucade Soccer Clinic. He is also a mentor to a number of top athletes. In 2020 he co-hosted sixteen (16) Zoom Webinars with Trinidad and Tobago’s 3X Olympian Sailor Andrew Lewis. These webinars, recently updated to a television series, are now available on the YouTube Channel: ‘Positive Moments with Andrew & Don’.
