#WaterForElephants #BookTwitter What a 1930s circus can teach us about leadership. 🎪🐘 I finally picked this one up, and

Gruen perfectly captures the romance and brutality of old-time circuses. You’ll laugh, cringe, and probably cry. 🎪🐘

I finally picked this one up, and I can’t believe I waited so long. It’s the Depression era. Jacob, a young veterinary student, becomes the unlikely caretaker for a second-rate circus. What follows is a tangled web of loyalty, forbidden love (yes, Marlena and that jealous, dangerous husband), and one very stubborn elephant who changes everything. Only one builds a lasting team.

The takeaway? You can command with fear, or you can lead with kindness. Only one builds a lasting team.
