"""As an innovator introducing sweeping changes to a system affecting all citizens of a country-with wider implications across continents-Marcia Favale answered the call for help from a prime minister and flew 6,000 miles to be that unforgettable leader."" -Bhavana Smith, Founder & CEO of Until There Are Nine, and Pay and Promotion Equity Advocate ""If you're one step away from the next great invention or disruption, Marcia's guidance will give you all the courage you need!"" -Greg Morley, Cultural Competency Thought Leader and Advisor, and Author of Bond: Belonging and the Keys to Inclusion and Connection ""Marcia says, 'Fear of diversity destroys us.' Strong words that ring true, and through leading by vivid example, she shows us what is possible across industries and across continents as the innovator that others call in the middle of the night. Brains are on full display in this treasure trove of meaningful examples. With an appreciation of all dimensions of difference, Marcia Favale is also that inclusive leader who reinforces we are not defined by our bodies-we have the power to choose who we are beyond the constraints of our external characteristics. That choice makes us limitless innovators."" -BE Alink, CEO, Founder and Inventor, The Alinker ""Marcia Favale holds self-awareness in such high regard that she took rare time and space to walk six hours a day to complete the Camino de Santiago, a pilgrimage that dates back to the 9th century. As she writes, 'unwaveringly to reach a destination that does not entail a bonus or applause, just a commitment to bring balance'. In the 10 strategies she offers, there is no shortage of riveting stories like this as she takes the reader along, demonstrating the power of diverse thinking and relationships to manifest at the level of ingenuity we're capable of."" -M. Najeeb Ahmad and Scott R. Willett, Ph.D., Principals, Pennington, and Co-Authors of Surge: Change Everything with Your Rare Time and Space ""As a former retail executive, I appreciate the diversity of skills that Marcia exhibits through her many accomplishments. In the second chapter of my career, I had the privilege of supporting a very large financial commitment to advance women-owned businesses, and through that work I met some extraordinary and resilient women in various industries. I applaud Marcia for her leadership in finance, technology, and entrepreneurship. In her book, one of the strategies she talks about is ""Raise Your Voice to Benefit Others"". I strongly believe in this characteristic and the subsequent actions that go with it. This book is a must read and a roadmap for becoming an intentional, inclusive leader!"" -Michael A. Byron, Managing Director, Byron Diversity Business Consulting ""Not only is Marcia Favale a noted finance deal maker-she is a top deal maker in inclusive partnerships that influence great change. Her 10 strategies are power-packed, amply describing how she did it and how you can too. The opening prompts in each chapter are brilliant, helping you practice thinking about innovation and inclusion as one unifying starting point toward your goals. Authored by premier innovator, inventor, and interventionist, this book will be a classic in innovation and DEI!"" -Paul Wolfe, Human First Leadership Advocate, Author of Human Beings First: Practices for Empathetic, Expressive Leadership"
