For over a decade, Brené Brown has found a special place in our hearts as a gifted mapmaker and a fellow traveler. She is both a social scientist and a kitchen-table friend whom you can always count on to tell the truth, make you laugh, and, on occasion, cry with you. And what’s now become a movement all started with The Gifts of Imperfection, which has sold more than two million copies in thirty-five different languages across the globe. What transforms this book from words on a page to effective daily practices are the ten guideposts to wholehearted living. The guideposts not only help us understand the practices that will allow us to change our lives and families, they also walk us through the unattainable and sabotaging expectations that get in the way. Brené writes, “This book is an invitation to join a wholehearted revolution. A small, quiet, grassroots movement that starts with each of us saying, ‘My story matters because I matter.’ Revolution might sound a little dramatic, but in this world, choosing authenticity and worthiness is an absolute act of resistance.” Check It Out Tijuwana Burton Tuesday, March 1, 2022 Audiobook Set Boundaries, Find Peace: A Guide to Reclaiming Yourself Healthy boundaries.

But what if you could know yourself just a little bit better—and with this small improvement, get a big payoff…not just in your career, but in your life? Research shows that self-awareness—knowing who we are and how others see us—is the foundation for high performance, smart choices, and lasting relationships. There’s just one problem: most people don’t see themselves quite as clearly as they could. Fortunately, reveals organizational psychologist Tasha Eurich, self-awareness is a surprisingly developable skill. Integrating hundreds of studies with her own research and work in the Fortune 500 world, she shows us what it reallytakes to better understand ourselves on the inside—and how to get others to tell us the honest truth about how we come across. Through stories of people who have made dramatic gains in self-awareness, she offers surprising secrets, techniques and strategies to help you do the same—and how to use this insight to be more fulfilled, confident, and successful in life and in work.

I Am Malala. This is my story. Malala Yousafzai was only ten years old when the Taliban took control of her region. They said music was a crime. They said women weren't allowed to go to the market. They said girls couldn't go to school. Raised in a once-peaceful area of Pakistan transformed by terrorism, Malala was taught to stand up for what she believes. So she fought for her right to be educated. And on October 9, 2012, she nearly lost her life for the cause: She was shot point-blank while riding the bus on her way home from school. No one expected her to survive. Now Malala is an international symbol of peaceful protest and the youngest ever Nobel Peace Prize winner. In this Young Readers Edition of her bestselling memoir, reimagined specifically for a younger audience and including exclusive photos and material, we hear firsthand the remarkable story of a girl who knew from a young age that she wanted to change the world—and did. Malala's powerful story will open your eyes to another world and will make you believe in hope, truth, miracles and the possibility that one person—one young person—can inspire change in her community and beyond.

That's a mistake, says Daniel H. Pink (author of To Sell Is Human: The Surprising Truth About Motivating Others). In this provocative and persuasive new book, he asserts that the secret to high performance and satisfaction-at work, at school, and at home—is the deeply human need to direct our own lives, to learn and create new things, and to do better by ourselves and our world. Drawing on four decades of scientific research on human motivation, Pink exposes the mismatch between what science knows and what business does—and how that affects every aspect of life. He examines the three elements of true motivation—autonomy, mastery, and purpose-and offers smart and surprising techniques for putting these into action in a unique book that will change how we think and transform how we live.

Bringing 10 years of experience across the banking and energy sectors, she has a proven track record in leading strategic initiatives, including the design and operationalization of Third-Party Risk Management and Regulatory Compliance frameworks, managing critical regulatory responses, and establishing key partnerships. Laura brings a global perspective from her experience working in the UK and Canada and studying in France, allowing her to tailor risk management to diverse business environments. Her work focuses on enhancing cross-functional collaboration, aligning risk management with business objectives, and fostering a culture of compliance and operational excellence. Laura is known for advancing risk management practices, driving change and her commitment to empowering others. In addition to her professional achievements, Laura is passionate about volunteering and mentoring individuals, guiding them in navigating their careers and building confidence. Leadership Characteristics Myers Briggs: INTJ Laura approaches leadership with a strategic and long-term outlook. She is detail-oriented, proactive, and committed to building strong partnerships. Her leadership style is rooted in fostering collaboration and trust, while maintaining high standards for quality and integrity in everything she does. Laura is passionate about enabling others to succeed, providing guidance and support to help her team members grow and develop their skills.

Laura drives meaningful change by empowering her team to take ownership of their work, encouraging accountability, professional growth, and a culture of continuous improvement. Leadership Challenges As a traditional 2nd line of defense function, Risk Management is often viewed as a blocker to operations. Laura has faced the challenge of shifting the perception to Risk Management being a business enabler and strategic partner. This transformation is an ongoing journey and won’t happen overnight. Laura’s perseverance and resilience have been a key force in helping to build and maintain strong partnerships and demonstrate the value of proactive risk management. Operationalizing the TPRM program in the Bank provided a key opportunity to address this challenge. Laura used this initiative to collaborate with, train and guide stakeholders, ensuring they understood how Risk Management could support business objectives and strengthen strategic decisions. Key Take-a-ways The true value of a strong TPRM program extends beyond just mitigating threats - it lays the foundation for operational resilience and long-term success. A well-designed TPRM program helps businesses anticipate risks, adapt to change, and seize opportunities with confidence, knowing they have made well-informed decisions. Achieving this requires building strong relationships, educating stakeholders, and fostering a culture where risk is seen as a strategic partner in achieving business goals. When embedded effectively, TPRM becomes an integral part of decision-making processes, acknowledged early on rather than treated as an afterthought. Laura’s favourite aspect of TPRM is its dynamic, cross-functional nature, allowing her to collaborate with diverse teams across the entire organization. Fun Fact Laura grew up in Scotland before moving to Canada and has a passion for exploring new places and staying active. She loves road-tripping, hiking, kayaking and camping with her husband and their energetic Australian labradoodle puppy. And of course, with her personality type, she is always planning their next adventure!

Ventara helps teams connect third-party oversight to material business risk, evidence sufficiency, residual-risk ownership, and decisions leadership can explain and defend. Engagements may start with practical assessment, backlog, or remediation support, but the goal is a stronger TPRM program where review depth matches business consequence and the business can stand behind its approvals, exceptions, and ongoing reliance decisions.

Risk Acceptability and Decision Standards: Define what is acceptable, who decides, what evidence is enough, and how exceptions are approved and time-bound. Use-Case Due Diligence and Evidence Calibration: Match evidence to the actual use case, business reliance, and risk tier rather than defaulting to generic questionnaires. Decision-Ready Approvals and Renewals: Provide practical, prioritized, and defensible approve, remediate, exception, and renewal options leaders can act on. Contract Controls and Assurance Rights: Translate requirements into enforceable terms, audit rights, assurance rights, and flow-down obligations. Material-Change and Vendor Change Governance: Identify change triggers for SaaS, AI, data-flow changes, subcontractors, and scope shifts before risk drifts between reviews. Onboarding Control Activation and Handoffs: Turn requirements into operating reality through access, configuration, ownership, evidence, and cadence setup. Monitoring and Renewal Cadence: Establish tier-based monitoring, renewal rhythm, evidence refresh, and escalation paths for relationships that matter. Remediation, Exceptions, and Closure Verification: Track remediation, verify closure evidence, define compensating controls, and time-bound exceptions.
