The launch planned to commemorate the author’s 47th birthday, shall present a work of literature that encapsulates over two decades of professional work as a motivational and corporate speaker on critical values such as high performance for productivity; personal and workplace excellence and attitudinal transformation. The book which is achievement-centred also focusses on positive work ethics, motivation for budding, middle level and top cadre leaders including spurring professionals to more commitment.
