Birds of all feathers : doing diversity and inclusion right / by Bach, Michael,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."Diversity" and "inclusion" have become buzz words. They're used in casual conversation by CEOs and world leaders alike. But what do these words mean, why do they matter ... and why did you just pick up a book about them? In Birds of All Feathers, speaker, author and D&I expert Michael Bach argues that creating diverse, inclusive workplaces is not just the right thing to do--it is the smart thing to do. It embraces an ethos of innovation and creativity. It's good for you and your employees, it strengthens your organization, and it benefits the people you serve. Whether you are in the arts, health, non-profit, for-profit, or another sector, there is a business case for making your organization a space of true inclusion. Birds of All Feathers shows you how to discover your organization's "why," how to implement and sustain beneficial changes, and how to measure its success. With more than twenty years of experience in the field, Michael Bach, founder of the Canadian Centre for Diversity and Inclusion (CCDI), lays out what can be a complex topic in expertly accessible terms and teaches you how to do D&I right.

"Number One Is Walking is Steve Martin's cinematic legacy-an illustrated memoir of his legendary acting career, with stories from his most popular films and artwork by New Yorker cartoonist Harry Bliss. Steve Martin has never written about his career in the movies before. In Number One Is Walking, he shares anecdotes from the sets of his beloved films-Father of the Bride, Roxanne, The Jerk, Three Amigos, and many more-bringing readers directly into his world. He shares charming tales of antics, moments of inspiration, and exploits with the likes of Paul McCartney, Diane Keaton, Harrison Ford, and Chevy Chase. Martin details his forty years in the movie biz, as well as his stand-up comedy, banjo playing, writing, and cartooning, all with his unparalleled wit. With gorgeously illustrated cartoons and single-panel "diversions" in Steve and Harry's signature style, Number One Is Walking is full of the everyday moments that make up a movie star's life, capturing Steve Martin's singular humor and acclaimed career in film. The perfect gift from the team who brought you the #1 New York Times bestseller A Wealth of Pigeons"--Publisher.

The Jesus I know : honest conversations and diverse opinions about who he is / by Gifford, Kathie Lee,1953-author.;
Includes bibliographical references."New York Times bestselling author Kathie Lee Gifford reveals heartwarming, entertaining conversations between celebrities who often disagree about who Jesus is and their stories of what He means to them. For decades Kathie Lee has had deep conversations about her faith with anyone who is interested in talking about it. What she discovered early on is most people want to talk about Jesus: atheists, agnostics, Scientologists, broken-hearted Catholics, confused Baptists, Pentecostals, Sikhs, Buddhists, and Hindus alike. While some of the people Kathie Lee has spoken with do not share her belief that Jesus is the Messiah-as prophesied for centuries by prophets in the Hebrew scriptures-they nonetheless have a universal fascination with Him. This singular man who lived more than two thousand years ago, never traveled more than one hundred miles from where He was born, managed to change the entire world. Even the way we delineate history (BC/AD) comes from His short thirty-three years of life.In The Jesus I Know, Kathie Lee shares cherished conversations about this rabbinic Jew that she's had with others who find Him to be an ancient historical figure who somehow continues to be an undeniably magnetic, relevant presence in the modern world. Using Kathie Lee's favorite Scripture passages as scaffolding, these thought-provoking exchanges include a diversity of people, such as Craig Ferguson, Al Pacino, Hoda Kotb, Howard Stern, Ethel Kennedy, Kevin Costner, Maria Shriver, Katherine Schwarzenegger, Dolly Parton, Evil Knievel, Kris Jenner, Jenna Bush Hager, Regis Philbin, Patti Mallette (mom to Justin Bieber), and hitmakers Louis York and Jason Kennedy"--
