Man is success and failure wrapped in one. Men aren't supposed to feel any way about the expectation put on them. Men need to take responsibility for the toxicity created by them. But once again...there too lies some truth. This is accountability being taken. "Tears in the Rain" is written in the first-person narrative to stimulate the thought process. With these writings I hope to dispel any myths about male strength and vulnerability; may these writings be an act of contrition, a show of male vulnerability society is owed, maybe give answers to some unanswered questions. May this be the starting line to ultimately show that "man" is not the enemy-evil humans are. Even fools want a better world. It doesn't make them foolish. Masculinity is no more the enemy than femininity is; both are fallible. One is nothing without the other, without one the other falls weak and dies. May these writings be the starting lines that start the discussions to begin healing and changing paradigms.

This is the new edition of a book that addresses a pressing need: how to avoid inadvertent communication blunders. It takes little imagination to think of how easily a single thoughtless, stupid or cruel remark can cause enormous damage to a person's career dreams and professional standing. Numerous examples can be found in the newspapers and on the six o'clock news. All I Said Was is an experienced navigator's advice on how to avoid the rocks and shallows of a workplace that is increasingly diverse and confrontational. Written and recently revised by a management consultant and former EEO officer, the book steers a course between being hypersensitive and being indifferent to the feelings of others. Its practical approach can be used by individuals and employers to prevent harassment, avoid public relations disasters, and foster trust.

EEO Management is a blunt, occasionally humorous, and practical look at the management of EEO, Affirmative Action, and Diversity programs. Written by a former EEO officer and current management consultant with over 30 years of experience in the field, the book gives an insider's view of what EEO professionals must do to build a credible and effective program whether it is gaining clout, dealing with department heads and lawyers, or handling the complexities of upper management. This is essential reading for anyone with EEO, Affirmative Action, or Diversity Management responsibilities.
