Tune into The Dedan Tolbert Show tonight at 9pm. My guest is founder of Trip Development Services, Jamie Triplin.

TRIP Development Services, LLC works with individuals and organizations (both for-profit and nonprofit) to really improve planning (TRIP) of any goal, vision, or mission. It is important to ensure that you, or your organization, are operating at its highest potential. But what happens when you get into a rut? Are you taking strategic steps to help you move to the next level? Laying a very strong foundation is a necessary component to stay on the path of success—this is why organizational development is important.

The Woman Behind TRIP

Jamie A. Triplin decided to pursue organizational development consulting shortly after she moved from Pennsylvania to Washington, DC. Organizational development now has a deeper meaning to her—she believes that without strategic organization and planning, individuals, groups, agencies, governments, businesses, and non-profits will find it very difficult to reach the end product.

"Strategic organizational planning should be at the forefront of every endeavor. You have to be able to pay very close attention to detail in order to see what works and what doesn't. It could be something very minor that stops you from reaching the ultimate goal, or actually improving the system—and for some reason, you just keep missing it!"

Jamie holds a Masters degree in Public Affairs from Indiana University of Pennsylvania, and is very strong in leadership. Over the past 10 years, she has advised, organized, implemented, and developed for individuals, programs, and organizations such as the Prince George's County Public School system, NAACP, tenant associations, Generation Change Inc, and CRUNK! Magazine. She is currently coordinating a major youth event for Youngnificent, Inc., serves as organizational director for I AM entertainment, and provides consultation to various individuals and organizations whose needs include ma

Please join me as I welcome Thelma from Good Times, Bern Nadette Stanis!

Stanis is best known as Thelma from Good Times! But there's much more to her then that. In the 70s, Bern Nadette Stanis was the personification of Black Beauty. As sophisticated and graceful as she was, she still became TV's first Black sex symbol or "It" girl. Thelma/Bern Nadette and The Evans Family also proved many stereotypes wrong about the ghetto and the young black girl, like for instance...that all Black girls and Black families in the ghetto had no hopes, dreams, or class. Thelma showed that a "ghetto girl" had hopes and dreams, intelligence, respect, dignity and grace, and it wasn't just acting, Bern Nadette was that naturally. She introduced a new definitive image of the young Black girl and woman.

She is a wonderful, graceful dancer which she displayed several times on Good Times. In everything Bern Nadette did it was marked with delicacy with diminutive beauty, form, or grace.

Her grace and beauty was a welcoming presence on TV in the 1970s and still is today and will be as long as there's a TV. Her dramatic, comedic charm, witty one-liners, daintiness, winsomeness, sexy but innocent image, were versatile qualities that made her a great talent and great favorite who'll never be forgotten.

We will also be discussing her hot new books, “Situations 101” and “For Men Only”.
