"Build organizations where employees feel truly safe to learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
The proven practical guide to psychological safety is now expanded with updated research and powerful new frameworks and tools.
Psychological safety—the belief that you can speak up without risk of punishment or humiliation—is crucial for high-performing teams and innovative organizations. This revised and expanded edition of Timothy Clark's groundbreaking framework provides leaders with a research-backed roadmap through four distinct stages that enable individuals to feel safe, valued, and empowered.
The four stages build progressively: Inclusion Safety (feeling included and accepted), Learner Safety (feeling safe to learn and ask questions), Contributor Safety (feeling safe to contribute and participate), and Challenger Safety (feeling safe to challenge the status quo and speak truth to power).
This new edition adds compelling quantitative evidence from Clark's global database of 1.2 million data points, validating the four-stage model across cultures and demographics. New chapters explore what psychological safety is not, the dangers of 'nice' cultures, the relationship between psychological and physical safety, and practical measurement strategies.
Leaders will learn to banish fear, create performance-based accountability, and build environments where people thrive beyond expectations."
"There's not enough time in the day.
How often have Mickey, Skye, Levi, Cyrus, and Thea thought that?
Well, now they have plenty of extra time … because they no longer need to sleep.
None of them knows why this is happening to them. All they know is that they have to keep it a secret from their families and their friends. And while they keep it a secret, they can use their extra hours to become better than everyone else.
Each of them thinks they're alone in their sleeplessness. But once they find each other, they know it can't be just an accident. Suddenly they're forced to ask:
What's keeping them awake at night?"
"From award-winners Supriya Kelkar and Jarrett Lerner comes a middle-grade story about a pair of unlikely friends determined to save the library that brought them together.
Roohi and Nate are not friends. Their paths have crossed a handful of times over the years—and the outcome has never been good. Nate thinks Roohi is a snobby know-it-all, and Roohi thinks Nate is nothing but a slacker.
But that begins to change when they both somewhat reluctantly join a reading club that meets during lunch at their school library. The Lunch Bunch allows Roohi to open up about feeling disconnected from her friends on the track team after a broken toe sidelined her for the season. Nate, who has always struggled in school, shares how tired he is of constantly being compared to his genius older brother. Despite their differences, and maybe because of them, Roohi and Nate form a friendship unlike any other they’ve ever had, with each other and with the other kids in the club.
As the Lunch Bunch gets stronger, though, things seem to be falling apart at the library. When the kids learn that their beloved librarian, Mrs. Sharp’s, job may be in danger due to budget cuts, they band together to find a solution . . . which proves to be easier said than done. Can Roohi and Nate’s new friendship survive outside of the Lunch Bunch in order to save the place that brought them together?"

When Leena Edenfrell swore herself to the Frozen Prince, Noc Feyreigner, she never dreamed she'd ignite the flames of war. And yet as their enemies combine forces against them, Leena and Noc have no choice but to gather their allies and fight. While Noc makes moves to reclaim their lost throne, Leena acts as the new Crown of the Charmer's Council, searching for a way to stop the enemy from raising an ancient creature destined to burn their world to ash.
