Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Behind the Walls: How Good People Survive-and Lead-Inside America's Prisons Over three decades, Michael Cantrell rose from burned-out correctional officer to Chief of Emergency Preparedness for the Federal Bureau of Prisons-learning, often the hard way, how to lead without losing himself inside the walls of America's harshest prisons with the people no one wanted to see outside barbed wire. At forty, Michael Cantrell was told he'd never leave corrections-that the job as a correctional officer would define him until it finally wore him out. He nearly proved them right. After years of exhaustion, sixteen-hour shifts, and a moment in a parking lot where he couldn't remember what day it was-or where he'd parked-Cantrell faced a hard truth: The job wasn't going to change. He had to. What followed wasn't a clean ascent. It was fourteen failed promotions, relentless pressure, and a slow, grinding education in leadership forged inside one of the most unforgiving environments imaginable. Raw, unfiltered stories of killers, mob bosses, monsters, and America's most depraved citizens are punctuated with haunting poems written in the aftermath of long shifts-this is more than a career story. For Cantrell, it's a reckoning. This book reveals a truth few will say out loud: Prisons don't just change inmates. They change everyone inside. And leadership, at its core, is learning how to walk through that darkness-and still find your way to the light.
