It is week six of Tony Sharp’s new job. His division is under threat, his staff won’t take responsibility and so far, Tony’s attempts to improve efficiency have had little effect.  He soon realises that a more radical approach is required... But can he convince those around him to take the risk? Defying Gravity touches on the real issues that keep managers awake at night. What do you do when a key member of your team walks out and you’re told that there’s a hiring freeze? How do you convince the board to invest without setting yourself unachievable targets? What do you do about the back-stabbing colleague who seems determined to see you fail? A gripping and entertaining read, Defying Gravity documents the unpredictable journey of one corporate entrepreneur as he battles his way to business success, providing valuable insight along the way.
