Produktbeschreibung

The book begins with me in High School, (in Los Angeles), experiencing the added challenge of being an elected student council president; and, not letting all the political benefits affect my ego to the point where it becomes a character fault. From high school I enter the Air Force where performance, and not necessarily political connections, was how a person gained recognition. This recognition held true at every assignment from basic training, tech school, 1st assignment, Thailand, Academy Prep School, Air Force Academy and McGuire AFB. Along the way, I discuss some of the gaffs as well as the accomplishments.

Autorenporträt

I am a Baby Boomer, Black, and grew up in Los Angeles in the 60's and 70's. I have an MBA from Loyola Marymount University and currently reside in Pennsylvania. I have had many challenges throughout my life encountering discrimination, mostly in the subtle, non-overt way. Still I try to focus on the achievements that I have accomplished in corporate America. With the attention on discrimination today, I thought it would be interesting to a majority of Americans to see and know, yes, there is discrimination, and not only racial; however, you have a choice to let it overcome you, or you overcome it.
