Tabitha Laser

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over & over and expecting different results. We have fallen into a pattern where we repeat the mistakes others made in the past, but have we asked ourselves, why are we making the same mistakes? The answer is lack of leadership development.

Much like a strong foundation is critical to the stability of any physical structure, organizations must build foundations capable of bearing the weight of growth and pressure of change. Cultures can quickly become toxic, killing an organization’s ability to succeed, when leaders build Deadly Expectations into their Foundation for Success.

Millennials and future leaders no longer have to make the mistakes of yesterday in order to learn valuable lessons tomorrow; they can have the answers they need today! Laser brilliantly combines her expertise in risk reduction, human behavior and strategy with existing ‘better’ practices and learnings from others, in this entertaining, easy to read, solution-packed beginner’s guide to leadership essentials.

T.A. Laser, an insider with nearly three decades of experience in leading, educating and advising Fortune 500 companies, governments and communities around the globe, reveals how the lack of leadership development opportunities and ignorance of Deadly Practices lie at the root of many problems currently plaguing organizations.

Laser believes that everyone has the ability to impact positive change and invites you to join her on the journey towards building better paths to success!

David Parish

The environmental policy landscape can be tough to navigate between politicians, advocacy groups and businesses having a different message. Alaskan author David Parish’s new book “The Facts of the Matter” (Greenleaf Book Group Press/September 2018) provides a clear explanation of the environmental, technology, energy and resources issues we face and how readers can move politicians, regulators, environmental groups, media and businesses to truly take the action society needs to prosper.

Parish argues that the best way to conserve the planet and ourselves is the natural convergence of smart natural resource development with improving the lives of the growing population. “The Facts of the Matter” is the basis for a conversation, based on solutions over rhetoric and will cause a rethinking of our biases – to the benefit of the greater good.

Mindy Hall

Too often executives allow their functional roles to define who they are as leaders. Instead, they should focus on the type of leader they want to be, and let that knowledge guide deliberate choices and actions – to lead with intention. Hall argues that this is the most overlooked skill for those at the top, and often is the differentiator of great leadership and a source of long-term competitive advantage. She offers real world examples and a prescriptive plan for choosing your actions with care and discipline, day by day, moment by moment.
