The Shannon Institute provides established leaders the opportunity to gain clarity around values, purpose and those things that matter most to them in order that they might align them with the contributions they make to our community or their work.

Additionally, Damon provides consultancy services in facilitation, community engagement, and leadership development to support organizations and individuals in being most connected and effective. All of that said, Damon believes his real job description is that of supporting change makers among us in multiple ways and at multiple entry points in Community and he will share his knowledge and passion with us at our annual celebration.

Damon holds a B.A. in History from Metropolitan State University, a M.A. in Leadership from Augsburg College, and is a 2017 graduate of the Humphrey Policy Fellows Program of the University of Minnesota.
