Stephen BoxThis 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 intak 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.
