Not Far From The Tree

Motivated by inspirational "seeds of knowledge" instilled in him by his Mother, a single Black parent, Eric Otis Simmons went on to accomplish some amazing things in life - despite seemingly impossible odds. In his Memoir, Simmons takes the reader through his genealogical research to learn more about himself, to the time his Mom was assaulted at gunpoint, to walking on and making Auburn University's basketball team at 5'7", 147 pounds, to when he closed a $25 million sale in Hong Kong and more. In between, he masterfully ties together what his Mother taught him and how he turned those valuable lessons into success in his various Sales/Sales Management roles with Fortune 500 employers AT&T, GE, IBM, and MCI."If you love inspiration, heartfelt stories, and laughter, this book is right up your alley."
