Two Rivers: The Power of Collaboration (Hard Cover) by Shery Roussarie & Kelly Macken-Marble
$26.99
In the fall of 2018, Shery Roussarie and Kelly Macken-Marble, CEOs of two competing health care companies, met for the first time. The energy generated by their like-mindedness in creating a managed care network sparked a two-year journey of collaboration that took their small community by surprise ... and by storm.
While maintaining their separate companies, these two inspirational women purchased a hospital and merged, creating a safe, reliable place people could come to for health care services. Along the way, they encountered significant resistance and trials from the very medical organizations keeping theirs alive. The hospital systems that had instantly minimized the opportunities to jointly collaborate and threatened retribution for collaboration were rocked when the two women's plans for more accessible health care came to fruition.
Breaking the norms of gender, competition, and politics in leadership, Shery and Kelly pushed traditions aside and accomplished the impossible through collaboration.

Interviews by a Clueless White Woman (Soft Cover) by Amy Thornton Shankland
$18.95
2020 not only brought the devastation of COVID-19, but also widened gaps for marginalized groups in the United States during a time when it was perhaps more critical than ever to band together with compassion.
Now more than ever, millions of individuals continue to face obstacles that many of us cannot even begin to grasp. These are people who struggle because they have “otherness;” perhaps they are people of color or members of the LGTBQ community. Or both. Maybe they have physical, mental, or emotional disabilities. Perhaps they practice a religion other than Christianity.
In Interviews by a Clueless White Woman, Amy Thornton Shankland shares stories of individuals who have experienced and continue to experience turmoil. It is her hope that these stories can help increase understanding and unite us in our humanity.
