Having spent my career in retail as a store manager, district manager, division manager, and finally as a retail consultant the following book came to be. It was not something I had planned on writing. However, I have become increasingly frustrated by the lack of common sense management practices that thirty years ago seemed to be commonplace. I had to ask myself is my perception a result of growing older? I don't think so! This is why I wrote this book. My hope is that it will help you in your management career. Best wishes.
