Thrive Minds Book Club
Quarterly non-fiction book club learning and discussing new inspired ways of thinking about community.
THRIVE Minds is a non-fiction book club with a focus on positive leadership (both personal and professional), personal growth, community building + growth, environmental stewardship, autobiographies of great leaders and new inspired ways of thinking.
We believe that words yield tremendous power, and that this presents a unique opportunity to encourage positive dialogue while uniting and connecting with members of the community.
