Four executives sign-up for fitness classes as part of their New Year's resolution to get into shape. Dan, Louise, Robbie and Ed come from different industries, family backgrounds and lifestyles and have different issues to deal with. Under the expert guidance of their fitness instructor and life coach. Mr Cheung - who is wise enough to know that people have to reconstruct their own lives - they begin to develop a physical and mental health routine which has a profound impact on them as they struggle with their problems. Desperate Executives is based on the four predominant issues which continually emerge in executive coaching sessions. Written as a modern-day fable, by one of Ireland's leading executive coaches, this book offers an insight into typical dilemmas faced by people who are already successful and plots a "way through the maze" when difficult life issues need to be confronted.
