For nearly 20 years he has studied the too-often-ignored human side of corporate dynamics that create the imperfect corporate world we work in.

the more unconventional tactics people use to get ahead and stay ahead. In Stealing the Corner Office he draws on his experiences as a struggling middle manager and the startling revelations that became
the foundation for the career strategy that catapulted him into the executive ranks. Reid lives in Toronto, Ontario.
