“More people recognize the importance of Allyship—and that’s great. Unfortunately, many men still don’t know what they need to do to effect change so everyone feels valued and empowered at work. In Showing Up, Ray Arata provides clear guidance on how to turn good intentions into action. I strongly recommend it to everyone interested in helping create a more equal and productive workplace.” —Sheryl Sandberg, COO of Facebook and founder of LeanIn.Org and OptionB.Org Showing Up is a revolutionary step-by-step guide—by and for men—to end toxic masculinity and enact heart-based leadership, increase diversity, bolster the bottom line, and create a workplace culture where everyone wins. The Time's Up, Me Too, and Black Lives Matter movements have sounded a wake-up—especially for men. Organizations worldwide now realize the critical importance of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) for underrepresented people. It’s abundantly clear: the default model of masculinity isn’t working for anyone. But for a new and healthier infrastructure, for permanent and transformational shifts, we need a plan that includes men. In Showing Up, Ray Arata details the proven methods he's shared with such companies as Verizon, Bloomberg, Moody's, Intel, Toyota, Hearst, and more, teaching men to • Embrace healthy masculinity as a cornerstone of inclusionary leadership; • Identify unhealthy masculine behaviors in the workplace—like mansplaining, manterrupting, and manopolizing; • Adopt behavior modifications aligned with being an inclusive leader and ally; • Incorporate specific language to use in healthy discussions; and • Leverage power and position to elevate underrepresented groups.

Sometimes we do not get what we want, but God is working out the details of your life. God says everything is well so dwell in his presence with praise and worship. Behind every storm, there is a new beginning. You are making a difference in someone's life. You're the one everyone is looking for. You have come through like a champion. Thank you for setting the mark of excellence. Sometimes all we need is the encouragement of a friend or the adjustment of our attitude. One has no idea regarding the SOMETIMES in their life, until God shows them that there are times you have to go through so others can be blessed. God is making your name great. (Genesis 12:1-2)

Based on a Navy SEAL's inspiring graduation speech, this #1 New York Times bestseller of powerful life lessons "should be read by every leader in America" (Wall Street Journal). If you want to change the world, start off by making your bed. On May 17, 2014, Admiral William H. McRaven addressed the graduating class of the University of Texas at Austin on their Commencement day. Taking inspiration from the university's slogan, "What starts here changes the world," he shared the ten principles he learned during Navy Seal training that helped him overcome challenges not only in his training and long Naval career, but also throughout his life; and he explained how anyone can use these basic lessons to change themselves-and the world-for the better. Admiral McRaven's original speech went viral with over 10 million views. Building on the core tenets laid out in his speech, McRaven now recounts tales from his own life and from those of people he encountered during his military service who dealt with hardship and made tough decisions with determination, compassion, honor, and courage. Told with great humility and optimism, this timeless book provides simple wisdom, practical advice, and words of encouragement that will inspire readers to achieve more, even in life's darkest moments.
