THE THIRD LAW
In The Third Law, you’ll meet Megan who was eleven years old when her older sister sold her to a man for crack. You’ll be introduced to Janine who struggles to keep her four children fed when her food stamp assistance is cut because her $8/hour job pays too much. You’ll walk through a day in community corrections with Samantha, who is free, but not free because of the many arduous restrictions placed upon her. As author Tamra Ryan points out: these and many other women like them are not the sum of their addictions, crimes or poor judgment. Instead, most are victims—of poverty, abuse and neglect—who have been further victimized by drug sentencing laws, cultural prejudices and the human services system designed to protect them.

FOLLOWSHIP
The days of command and control style leadership are over. Leaders are sitting in the gap between what is expected from them today and what was modeled for them in the past, which leaves them feeling frustrated, confused, and hopeless. Why can’t I get my employees on board with the company’s collective goals? Why are my employees unmotivated? Why does no one work as hard as they used to?
The hard truth is the problem doesn’t lie with your team—it lies with you.
In Followship: 16 Lessons to Become a Leader Worth Following, author Tamra Ryan breaks the lessons into four categories—vision, integrity, courage, and emotional intelligence—to teach leaders how to inspire their audience to work together in the pursuit of collective goals, be their best selves, and go beyond the limit to achieve objectives that they never believed themselves capable of.
