Steve Pemberton
We aren’t losing our way―we’re losing what holds us steady. Steve Pemberton, author of The Lighthouse Effect and A Chance in the World, names this moment The Great Drift: a quiet but consequential movement away from the institutions, assumptions, and structures that once absorbed uncertainty and provided stability. As those anchors loosen, work feels more transactional, communities feel thinner, and even our personal lives strain under the weight of staying grounded.
In The Anchor Principle, Pemberton offers a way forward―not by looking outward for rescue, but inward for steadiness. Grounded in original research on what actually anchors people today, and informed by years spent inside communities, organizations, and classrooms, he reveals a truth often missed in the dominant narrative: as traditional anchors weaken, people are already stepping in―quietly taking responsibility for stability, meaning, and connection. Using the anchor as its guiding metaphor, this book reframes what it means to live fully―not by standing still, but by choosing where and how to hold fast.
