The Thirlby Company is proud to recognize Brooke Rivers, executive director of Reading Partners Minnesota as a Five-Star Manager. 

Brooke’s Five-Star Superpower: Emotional Intelligence ⭐️

Why Brooke is a Standout Manager: “Brooke is an empathetic leader who empowers her team to do their best work,” shared her colleague, Graham. “She is always willing to step into any situation and do the work, and isn't above taking care of the little things if it means it benefits her team. She leads by example, setting a high bar for quality of work and with a deep connection to the mission, while still putting people first. Brooke is full of ambitious visions but listens deeply to her team to determine what is possible. She shows that caring deeply — for the work and the people who make that work possible — is the strongest form of leadership.

Congratulations, Brooke! Thank you for modeling human-centered leadership and helping create workplaces where people want to stay.
