A total solar eclipse lasts only minutes, but its impact can last a lifetime.

The Eclipse Effect explores how rare and awe-inspiring events—like an eclipse—can ignite lasting change, bring people together, inspire extraordinary leadership, and strengthen communities in ways no one ever imagined.

In this engaging and deeply inspiring book, Jamie Carter and Debra Ross reveal the strategies that transformed communities across North America in the lead-up to the 2017 and 2024 eclipses. From grassroots organizers to science educators, emergency planners to tourism leaders, the authors uncover the exceptional efforts of everyday people who saw an opportunity, took action, and left behind a legacy.

Drawing on real-life stories, expert insights, and practical frameworks, The Eclipse Effect is a roadmap for harnessing unique moments—whether in business, education, or local communities—to create meaningful, lasting impact. If you’ve ever wondered how to turn inspiration into action, how to rally people around a common goal, or how to leave the world a little better than you found it, The Eclipse Effect is for you.

    I was so excited to be able to get an advanced copy of this book and finally got my print copy in the mail today. Deb Ross uses her experience between seeing the 2017 US eclipse to planning for the 2024 eclipse to show the power of networking. Through her passion she became a de facto leader in planning for the eclipse for Rochester NY. Knowing that she couldn't take this on alone she formed strong connections with others around her. This led to her having the opportunities to connect with people across the US and around the world. In doing so, she not only build her network and community, but also saw that others were doing the same thing. That then became the inspiration for this book. She interviewed numerous people to get their takes on how they planned for the eclipse- successes and failures are told in a very human way. Total solar eclipses inspire awe and wonder in all to get to observe them; however, that is only the start because extraordinary moments forge friendships and launch leaders. This book is not only for the science enthusiasts, but for anyone looking to become better at leading or supporting leaders. Learn from others to seize the extraordinary moments that come by so that you can build a strong network that will open up doors and build lasting connections.

    The Eclipse Effect is a refreshing take on leadership as the ability to rally people around a shared moment and turn it into lasting impact. Using the backdrop of recent solar eclipses, the authors show how ordinary people seized extraordinary opportunities to unite communities, build momentum, and create something meaningful that outlasted the event itself.

    What stands out is the emphasis on community. Leadership here isn’t top-down. It is collaborative, practical, and rooted in trust. The lesson is simple but powerful: the best leaders do more than manage events. They create environments where people come together and contribute.

    The writing is engaging, filled with real-world examples, and grounded in actionable ideas. It’s a strong reminder that leadership is less about titles than about recognizing the moment, stepping up, and bringing others with you.

    A quick, insightful read for anyone who wants to lead in a way that actually builds something lasting. Highly recommended!
