Workforce Diversity Management: Challenges, Competencies and Strategies Second Edition
Diversity is a reality of life, and a necessity in today's workplace. Workforce Diversity Management is about increasing one's cultural competency, understanding people as individuals rather than groups, and building productive human relationships in the workplace by focusing on an individual's head, heart and habits. It requires examining one's own beliefs and values as well as one's personal habits and daily behaviors to learn the skills of dealing appropriately with individuals whose personal beliefs and values may be different.

The book can help managers create a pleasant work environment where all employees of diverse beliefs and values are respected and treated with dignity.

Plato
An unabridged edition with introduction for study: Plato can do with words just as he pleases; to him they are indeed 'more plastic than wax' (Republic).

Children Learn What They Live: Parenting to Inspire Values
The timeless New York Times bestselling guide to parenting that shows the power of inspiring values through example. A unique handbook to raising children with a compassionate, steady hand--and to giving them the support and confidence they need to thrive. Expanding on her universally loved poem "Children Learn What They Live," Dorothy Law Nolte, with psychotherapist Rachel Harris, reveals how parenting by example--by showing, not just telling--instills positive, true values in children that they will carry with them throughout their lives. Addressing issues of security, self-worth, tolerance, honesty, fear, respect, fairness, patience, and more, this book of rare common sense will help a new generation of parents find their own parenting wisdom--and draw out their child's immense inner resources. If children live with criticism they learn to condemn. If children live with sharing, they learn generosity. If children live with acceptance, they learn to love. And more wisdom.
