Produktbeschreibung
A loving relationship can be defined as two imperfect people who refuse to give up on each other. But what if ignorance and alienation become a dominant force within and external prejudice becomes a barrier? Cis, a beautiful, coloured twenty-eight-year-old fashion writer, and Andy, a twenty-eight-year-old Scottish businessman, have been together since university days and married for two years. Both are inexperienced lovers, too busy to care, and are sleepwalking their way to divorce over the desire for a child. Whilst escaping a storm, Cis has a chance meeting with a much older and significantly more experienced professional man, Paul. Whilst sheltering her from the storm, Paul realises her dilemma and starts to educate her in the skills and delights that she so needs for a successful marriage. She wants more, including giving her his child, much against his better judgment as he has a painful history regarding wives and children. Then she wants Paul as well in spite of the clear prejudice that such a relationship would foster for both of them in society. And she will go to any length to keep him. This is a story of prejudice, generational value differences, and want over need, regardless of the consequences, in a culture of 'I want it all, and I want it now'.

Autorenporträt
This book is based on some 35 years of successful executive leadership in one form or another on the international stage with some of the largest banks in the World.Having started my journey to executive leadership at the time the first serious intake of females were attempting to make their claim for recognition, I witnessed why capable candidates failed. The primary failing was not understanding the rules of the game which are mostly gender neutral.Although written to include any gender seeking success, extra layers are added to the process that specifically address unique challenges faced by females. Quality executive leadership, just as in professional sport, is determined on merit, not gender, colour, ethnicity, or religion. Executives earn their place at the table and are required to function as a team each blending their skill set to the benefit of their sponsors. This skill set is a mix of attitude, discipline, knowhow, understanding the rules of the game, and knowing how the game is played.Written as a novel this self-help manual includes the human content which influences performance and prescribes a form of family management techniques developed during my career and proven very successful.
