No one man should have all that power : how Rasputins manipulate the world / by Barshad, Amos,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."Amos Barshad has long been fascinated by the powerful. But not by elected officials or natural leaders--he's interested in the scheming advisors, the dark figures who wield power in the shadows. And, as Barshad shows in 'No One Man Should Have All That Power', the natural habitat of these manipulators is not only political backrooms. It's anywhere power dynamics exist--from Hollywood to drug cartels, from recording studios to the NFL.In this wildly entertaining, wide-ranging, and insightful exploration of the phenomenon, Barshad takes readers into the lives of more than a dozen of these notorious figures, explores how they got there and how they wielded control, what led to their downfall or staved it off, and what lessons we can take from them [...]"--from dust jacket.

Amplifying Indigenous voices in business : Indigenization, reconciliation, and entrepreneurship / by Omulo, Priscilla,author.;
"Some of the common questions businesses, educational institutions, and communities ask are: 'Do we need an Indigenization strategy? If so, why; what is it really?; and, how do we do it?' Amplifying Indigenous Voices in Business is for organizations and allies who would like to make a positive difference by learning how to amplify Indigenous voices, Indigenize businesses, and support Indigenous entrepreneurship, all in the bigger spirit of reconciliation. Author Priscilla Omulo addresses Canada's complicated history with Indigenous peoples and how that contributes to today's challenges in the business realm. While the challenge is real, so is the opportunity, and Omulo's step-by-step guide explains how any organization can make immediate plans to improve the way they do business by doing the research, consulting the right people, and formulating a strategy to move forward. Omulo shows readers how a commitment to doing the right thing will lead to a more sustainable and inclusive place for all, and a stronger foundation for businesses and other organizations."--

Sunshine and spice / by Palit, Aurora,author.;
"When two complete opposites agree to fake date in order to solve their cultural dilemmas, they find the only force more powerful than an immigrant mother's matchmaking schemes might just be true love. Naomi Kelly is a problem solver. She'll do anything to make her new brand consulting business a success. When she lands a career-saving contract to rebrand the Mukherjee family's failing local bazaar, she knows she has to nail this one. But as the "oops" baby of a free-spirited Bengali mother, Naomi's lack of connection to her roots represents everything Gia Mukherjee disdains. Enter, Dev Mukherjee. Dev knows everything his mother wants ... including for him to get married, like, yesterday. When Gia hires a matchmaker (without, you know, asking him), Dev vows to do whatever it takes to avoid ending up in the same cold, loveless marriage his parents shared. When a potential match mistakes Naomi for his girlfriend, the solution to both their problems becomes clear: Naomi will pretend to date Dev in order to sabotage his mother's matchmaking efforts in exchange for lessons in Bengali culture. Flawless plan, right? But as Naomi and Dev bond over awful dancing at Garba, couples cooking classes, and rebranding the bazaar space as a team, they start to realize that while their relationship may be fake, their feelings for each other are starting to become very real. As the line between reality and rumor blurs, Naomi and Dev must confront what it means to fit the mold, and decide how much they're willing to risk for love"--
