Two May appearances mark the next chapter for the debut leadership memoir From Ashes to Influence: Leadership Forged by Fire and Faith
These appearances are not really about the book. They are about the conversation the book is starting - about what real leadership looks like in the moments that don’t make the highlight reel.”— Stacy Winsett, Author of From Ashes to Influence
LANTANA, TX, UNITED STATES, May 12, 2026 /
EINPresswire.com/ -- Stacy Winsett, a senior HR executive with more than two decades of leadership experience across global Fortune 500 companies and author of
From Ashes to Influence: Leadership Forged by Fire and Faith, will make two public appearances in May in support of her debut book.
On Sunday, May 18, 2026, Winsett will be a featured guest on
The Jeff Crilley Show, hosted by Emmy Award–winning journalist and former WFAA reporter Jeff Crilley. The conversation will explore Winsett's decades inside Fortune 500 boardrooms, the personal story behind the book, and her vision for what she calls the disciplined, ethical use of authority in today's high-pressure business environment.
Two days later, on Tuesday, May 20, 2026, from 5:30 to 7:00 PM Central, Stacy Winsett will host a public book signing at Fogo de Chão in Irving, Texas.

Drawing on a career that spans American Airlines, Gates Corporation, Orica, Weir Oil & Gas, Herc Rentals, Trillium Flow Technologies, and RATP Dev, Winsett has spent decades inside the rooms where leadership is tested — labor negotiations, crisis response, ethical investigations, and cultural transformation. From Ashes to Influence brings that experience to the page and has drawn early praise from senior executives, authors, and leadership practitioners, with endorsements from Valerie M. Grubb, David Brown, Hamid Sarshar, Wayne Goldberg, Matt Booterbaugh, Tribby Warfield, and Jim Hamel.
From Ashes to Influence: Leadership Forged by Fire and Faith is available now on Amazon in hardcover, paperback, Kindle, and audiobook formats. Stacy Winsett is also available for keynote speeches, leadership retreats, executive forums, and podcast interviews.
