The Empowered Whistleblower with Dawn Westmoreland When you land in the Mental Health ward you get to choose—do I want to remain a “victim” of my circumstances or do I want to be a “victor” of my life? Dawn chose to check herself out of the Mental Health ward after three days and take charge of her life! The traumas we face in our lives can disempower us OR we can overcome them and thrive! “The Empowered Whistleblower” is Dawn's raw and transparent story of going through childhood sexual molestation, childhood/adult bullying, an alcoholic marriage and landing in the Veterans Affairs Mental Health ward after two years of horrific bullying in the Veteran Affairs for being a “whistle-blower”. In life, each negative experience can be a “gift” in ugly wrapping paper if you can find the lesson or growth in each opportunity. Dawn blew the “whistle” on disempowerment in its various forms and I am now teaching others as a Personal Power Coach, how to step up and “break their own chains” that hold them back from their personal triumphs. Today, she teaches others to push through their fears so they can also be empowered and experience more fulfilling professional and personal lives. Dawn experienced workplace bullying because she acted as a whistleblower in the Veteran Affairs, which is an agency designed to take care of military veterans – she stood up to practices that were prohibited personnel practices.

The Un-Game: Four-Play to Business as UNusual with Ingrid Martine “The Un-Game” is based on the premise that we have more to unlearn than learn in order to meet current work and life challenges. "The Un-Game" is both a captivating novel and an inspirational invitation for organizational leaders to engage in a cutting-edge paradigm shift about how 21st century organizations do business. While speaking specifically to managers and other leaders, it also has universal appeal—we are, after all, managers of our own lives.  Before immigrating to the United States at age eleven, Ingrid Martine lived in Germany. Her fascination with human behavior began as an eight year old who read--under bed covers by flashlight and against strict maternal instructions--mythological stories and Tolstoy's Anna Karenina. While working as a teacher with inner-city at-risk youth who seemed to hate to learn, Ingrid started experimenting with and developing innovative educational models. Certain that a disdain for learning is unnatural, she submits that learning environments must help people--adults in corporate America included--get out of their own way. Ingrid Martine's ability to create rich learning environments was facilitated as much by non-traditional learning experiences like waitressing, horse and dog training, all of which required her to be "client-centered," as by her graduate work in psychology and experiential education design. The Un-Game is a novel whose characters work in such a rich learning environment. Her intention is to engage the reader in a learning process that supports exceptional effectiveness at work and transfers to life beyond work.  For more information visit: http://ingridmartine.com/
