The world of work is being rewritten in real time, and child care is not exempt from the disruption. We were thrilled to welcome Evelyn Knight, Founder of Child Care Business Professionals and nationally recognized ECE leader, for this timely and thought-provoking session bringing fresh perspectives, real-world experience, and insights built specifically for the childcare community.
Drawing on more than 20 years in the early childhood education field, a history of helping over 1,000 leaders internationally, and her signature ability to bridge business strategy with human behavior, Evelyn walked us through the forces driving this moment of change and the leadership shifts that will separate thriving programs from struggling ones in the years ahead.
In this webinar, Evelyn covered:
Where we stand in this workforce revolution and why employee values, motivation, and expectations have fundamentally shifted
How we got here and what the story tells us about the workforce walking through your doors today
What it looks like to make the critical shift from manager to mentor
Practical steps to reset your leadership approach and team culture
Final Thoughts
If the staffing and operational pressures in your center have started to feel relentless, Evelyn's message is that this is not a problem you can manage your way out of with the old playbook. The rules have changed. The leaders who recognize that early, and are willing to evolve how they lead, hire, and build culture, are the ones who will not just survive this moment but grow through it.
Meet the Expert
A 2x TEDx speaker, published author, and nationally recognized child care leader, Evelyn has built and scaled early childhood programs from the ground up while pushing the field to reckon with what isn't working. She is the founder of Child Care Business Professionals, where she has partnered with over 1,000 leaders internationally to build sustainable, high-quality programs in an industry defined by burnout, staffing crises, and a workforce that is too often overlooked.
What sets Evelyn apart isn't just her experience. It's her willingness to say what others won't. She bridges business strategy with human behavior and brings an unflinching perspective on leadership, workforce dynamics, and the emotional weight that comes with running programs responsible for children and families.
