Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take 🎧 Audiobook
Human-Centered Leadership in Healthcare
Kay Kennedy, Lucy Leclerc & Susan Campis · 2022
🎙 Narrated by Sara Sheckells
74/100
👍 Worth It
This one is genuinely research-grounded — built from real grounded-theory work with practicing nurse leaders and mapped directly to Magnet and ANA standards, which gives it credibility a lot of leadership books lack. It's a niche listen best suited to healthcare and nursing leaders rather than general audiences, but Sara Sheckells's narration is reportedly smooth and clear for this kind of instructional material.

🎙 Narration: good Sara Sheckells (Tantor Media) has been described elsewhere as sophisticated, smooth, and clear — a good fit for instructional nonfiction, though not confirmed specifically for this title.
