'An inspiring book for our challenging times' Olivia Coleman Nurses have never been more important. We benefit from their expertise in our hospitals and beyond: in our schools, on our streets, in prisons, hospices and care homes. When we feel most alone, nurses remind us that we are not alone at all. In The Courage to Care bestselling author Christie Watson reveals the remarkable extent of nurses' work: - A community mental-health nurse choreographs support for a man suffering from severe depression - A teen with stab wounds is treated by the critical-care team; his school nurse visits and he drops the bravado - A pregnant woman loses frightening amounts of blood following a car accident; it is a military nurse who synchronises the emergency department into immaculate order and focus. Christie makes a further discovery: that, time and again, it is patients and their families - including her own - who show exceptional strength in the most challenging times. We are all deserving of compassion, and as we share in each other's suffering, Christie Watson shows us how we can find courage too. The courage to care. 'Let's be thankful for wonderful nurses - and writers - like Christie Watson' Jacqueline Wilson 'Christie Watson writes with the fullness of her heart to give us insight into the world of patients and nursing, inspiring us to recognise it is how we treat people, how we speak and respond to them, as well as what we do, that heals' Julia Samuel

Stuart Holbrook is the arrogant, ignorant, and selfish billionaire owner of a professional baseball team and many other companies. Showcased in publications such as Forbes, Fortune, and the Financial Times, he has everything in life he could want. But he is a terrible leader, neither liked nor respected by those around him. Despite his privileges, the one person he most wants to be like is Todd Ferragamo, the aging captain of his big league team. Stuart learns how Todd treats those around him with dignity, from the cleaning staff in the clubhouse to the vendors in the stadium and the crew maintaining the impeccable field. In short, Todd is the greatest leader Stuart Holbrook has ever seen. So Stuart sets out to discover what makes Todd so effective. What results is a profound transformation in character as Stuart uncovers the qualities of integrity, humility, and treating others with dignity-the foundations of character-based leadership. For fans of The One Minute Manager by Ken Blanchard and Who Moved My Cheese? by Spencer Johnson, The Greatest Leader He Ever Saw is a remarkable fable about leading from within.
