SOUTH FLORIDA, May 25, 2026. Global Coaching Corner announces the release of The GreenLight Factor: A Leadership Framework, the new book by award-winning author, Certified Master Coach, and HR leadership veteran Dr. Shelly Cameron. Available wherever books are sold. The book introduces a groundbreaking three-part leadership framework that helps individuals move from hesitation and self-doubt into purposeful, confident action.
Drawing on more than two decades of global leadership experience in the pharmaceutical, healthcare and hospitality industries, and research on Caribbean American leaders published in the Journal of American Academy of Business (JAABC), Dr. Cameron has identified the precise mindset shift that separates those who lead boldly from those who remain on the sidelines. The GreenLight Factor distills those insights into a teachable, actionable framework built around a simple but powerful metaphor: the traffic light.
“Most people are not held back by a lack of talent or opportunity. They are held back by waiting for a green light that was never going to come from the outside. This book teaches leaders how to give themselves that green light.”
~ Dr. Shelly Cameron, Author of The GreenLight Factor
About the Book
The GreenLight Factor introduces a three-part framework centered on the universal language of the traffic light. Each signal represents a distinct leadership moment:
The RedLight calls leaders to stop and reassess, naming the fears, limiting beliefs, and external expectations that are keeping them stuck.
The YellowLight guides leaders to pause and reflect, building internal clarity, defining values, and developing the conviction to lead on their own terms.
The GreenLight Factor empowers leaders to move forward with purpose, confidence, and strategy, even when conditions are not perfect and no one has officially told them they are ready.
The book also includes a comprehensive self-assessment tool that helps readers identify which signal they are currently receiving in their leadership journey, along with a curated resource guide of fifteen complementary leadership books.
The GreenLight Factor is designed for emerging leaders stepping into their first role, mid-career professionals navigating transitions, entrepreneurs, and community changemakers, particularly those from under-represented communities who have been conditioned to seek external approval before acting.
