  Join CFE members for a virtual social book club discussion. The featured book is This Tender Land, by William Ken Krueger. 

  In the summer of 1932, on the banks of Minnesota's Gilead River, the Lincoln Indian Training School is a pitiless place where Native American children, forcibly separated from their parents, are sent to be educated. It is also home to Odie O’Banion, a lively orphan boy whose exploits constantly earn him the superintendent’s wrath. Odie and his brother, Albert, are the only white faces among the hundreds of Native American children at the school.
  
  After committing a terrible crime, Odie and Albert are forced to flee for their lives along with their best friend, Mose, a mute young man of Sioux heritage. Out of pity, they also take with them a brokenhearted little girl named Emmy. Together, they steal away in a canoe, heading for the mighty Mississippi in search for a place to call home.
  
  Over the course of one unforgettable summer, these four orphan vagabonds journey into the unknown, crossing paths with others who are adrift, from struggling farmers and traveling faith healers to displaced families and lost souls of all kinds.

  Mentorship vs sponsorship – what’s the difference?
  
  While mentors guide you and give advice, sponsors will advocate on your behalf and actively try to advance your career. 

  The Leadership & Professional Development Exchange invitesyou to take a closer look at the power of a sponsor relationship. We will watch a 15 minute TED talk on the subject and take time for discussion and exchange of ideas.
