FREE COMMUNITY BOOK CLUB

We are excited to announce—Read to Lead is BACK!

If you are a previous member of our book club, we are thrilled to have you back. New to our group? We are excited to welcome you.

Our monthly conversations are casual and centered around a chapter of our book, Live As A Leader, Inspiration and Tools to Transform Yourself, Your Team, and Your Life.

Aleta Norris, one of the book's authors, will serve as your guide through the Live As A Leader virtual book club. Aleta is an expert leadership coach and trainer with 30 years of experience developing leaders.

We are very casual. No pressure—this is an “if you’re here you’re here” monthly gathering. Can’t make it one month, join us for the next one. We'll send out a few reminders each month about the next event.

In October, we’ll reconvene with the introduction chapter, The Leadership Gap. If you’ve had a chance to read the chapter, that of course is a plus. We’d like that!  If not, you’re sure to pick something up from the conversation.
