McMINNVILLE, ORE. (June 25, 2024) — A Culture of Promise: The True Story of a Small Company’s Quest to Transform the Senior Living Industry by Fee Stubblefield is published with Forbes Books, the exclusive business book publishing imprint of Forbes. This must-read for people who are interested in organizational culture, work or invest in housing and care for older adults, or will someday live as an older adult is available online today on Amazon and Walmart.
How we live as older adults is about to change. In the transformative book A Culture of Promise, Fee Stubblefield, founder and CEO of The Springs Living, shares a compelling narrative that merges his personal journey with his professional mission to guide his industry through this period of change.
Drawing from decades of experience and driven by a personal promise to his grandmother, Stubblefield highlights the pressing need for a radical overhaul of the senior living sector. The book critiques current practices and lays out a concrete blueprint for creating vibrant, caring communities where older adults can genuinely thrive. At its core, A Culture of Promise challenges readers to reimagine how we live as older adults, emphasizing transparency, accountability, respect, and a commitment to excellence.
“One of the biggest fears most older adults have is outliving their money,” Stubblefield said. “To achieve our societal goals on the care of our seniors, we must work with all the stakeholders, governmental regulators, and yes, even politicians. We must look at each resident as someone we love deeply, like my grandmother—just as we would want others to do for us.”
