CEO: Mastering the Corporate Pyramid shines a spotlight on what CEOs actually do, identifies the skills necessary to do the job, and explains how to develop these skills for anyone aspiring to the executive suite as well as those considering starting or buying a business.

Book Description

Aira Jacobs is alone. It isn't that she didn't have family, friends or children or anything like that. Aira is this way because Benji is gone and he was the man who had taught her what love is. That magical love that can have you smiling so hard that your face hurts. Aira remembered Benji, his scent and his love for her. Her keen senses felt him when he was coming and mellowed when he left the room. If it wasn't for her two best friends Mercedes and Adam making her laugh when she would suddenly begin crying from the thought of him, Aira would have been lost in grief, loss in the world without her husband Benji.
