BIOS
The content came together as a writing collaboration between Roger J. Preis of Shelburne, Vermont,(www.rpecareers.com) a highly sought after executive coach, career and management consultant and John R. Christensen, a respected corporate Executive Life Strategist, of Burlington, Ontario (www.johnchristensenbooks.com).
The relationship grew out of a close association as international professional executive and personal development coaches, with hundreds of private corporate and personal clientele under our belts, spanning over five decades of exceptional experience.
Our purpose is to share our knowledge, experience, perspective and wisdom learned over many years. You will find the book an engaging, highly motivating, learning and energizing opportunity. The book presents the "gold" of our experiences in the style of a novel to add octane to each reader's thinking and success in life. Move Forward stages the vital message of hope, empowerment and change in a uniquely enlightened and entertaining manner.
A NEW HORIZON OF INSIGHTS

SYNOPSIS
Adam and Kimberley's unsettled world has pushed them into a corner where they are searching for the answers to: Is this all there is to life?, What more could there be? The story becomes a passenger on a radical sabbatical that cuts the reins of their existing lifestyle, twisting and turning along the back roads of New England.
The outliers they encounter include: the betrayed Lola, Beth the Welder, Mason from the Wiggin House, Russell, the Native American elder, Lance, the convicted felon and the holistic Doctor Butterworth. All of them have a lot to teach the couple, who have a lot to learn.
The book is presented in three parts: Part 1 - The Journey, joins the couple on the road trip to enlightenment. Part 2 - The Coaches' Notebook, weaves the threads of their life lessons into practical thoughts and actions, and introduces a disciplined process for empowering a happy, fulfilled life. Part 3 - Sound Bites from the Coaches, turns our empirical knowledge into pearls of wisdom to address the challenges of daily life and the decisions that determines our personal and professional destinies.
