How Ordinary People Can Have an Extraordinary Impact in the World
Discover how you can make a difference in the world by becoming a “human lighthouse,” and gain hope for the future as you learn a new definition of “hero.”
Our polarized, divisive culture seems to be without heroes and role models. We are adrift in a dark sea of disillusionment and distrust and we need “human lighthouses” to give us hope and direct us back to the goodness in each other and in our own hearts.
In this stirring follow-up to his memoir, Steve Pemberton gives practical encouragement for how you can be a “human lighthouse” for others and through these inspiring stories will renew your hope for humanity.
“The people who matter most in our lives are like lighthouses: we can count on them to stay sturdy through a storm and shine a path to guide us through darkness. Steve Pemberton shows us how to find them—and how to become them.”
“If you have ever doubted whether your work impacts the world, The Lighthouse Effect is for you.”
— Mildred Joyner, president of National Association of Social Workers
“The Lighthouse Effect is perhaps most of all an exercise in daily gratitude for the power of small moments—and the people that make them happen.”
— Eric Mosley, CEO of Workhuman and coauthor of Making Work Human
