Synopsis

The Blackfeet were hunters, travelling from place to place on foot. They used implements of stone, wood, or bone, wore clothing made of skins, and lived in tents covered by hides. Dogs, their only tame animals, were used as beasts of burden to carry small packs and drag light loads. The stories here told come down to us from very ancient times. Grandfathers have told them to their grandchildren, and these again to their grandchildren, and so from mouth to mouth, through many generations, they have reached our time. Those who wish to know something about how the people lived who told these stories will find their described in the last chapter of this book.

    CEO-Led Sales outlines The Right Model to revolutionise your sales process and dramatically improve your confidence in the predictability of your sales numbers. This has to start from the top with you, the CEO. 
    As the CEO of a sales organisation, how many times have you said to yourself: 
    "thank god our customers are buying because we're not selling" 
    "we had ten-times pipeline coverage, but we still missed our number?" 
    Or ... heard from your sales leads the following: 
    "the person who was going to sign off on our deal has gone on leave" 
    "this is a strategic deal - we must discount to win" 
    "they decided to do nothing?" 
    If these lines sound familiar, then your sales team is stuck in the past. They are struggling to keep pace 
    with the market and will continue to stumble into the future. That's not to say you won't make your 
    numbers on occasion, but you can be guaranteed your company won't be the clear leader in its market. 
    This creates distrust with your sales team and that uneasy feeling of not being sure you will meet your 
    targets. 
    Is there a better way? 
    After twenty years as a senior IT sales leader addressing this problem and demonstrating measurable 
    success across multiple organisations, Andrew Phillips knows there is. 
    CEO-Led Sales outlines The Right Model to revolutionise your sales process and dramatically improve 
    your confidence in the predictability of your sales numbers. This has to start from the top with you, the 
    CEO. 
    The process is a multi-year investment to transform your sales organisation. It's challenging, but the 
    results are consistent and the revenue reliable. Andrew Phillips invites you to take the next step and 
    discover the benefits of CEO-Led Sales.

    This study researched on Japanese People’s DNA and Ancient History to discover who the Modern Japanese People’s ancestors were. It examines DNA from all over Asia and the Pacific Islands to discover their origins. Japan has a lot of archaeologists-created history from the remains of people called the “Jomon” and the “Yayoi” (Lumen Learning, ND). Every scholar the author could find claim Japanese are made up of two different people- one from the north and one from the south. Is this true? This is a qualitative study with a goal to find out who the Japanese originated from using genetics.

    Excerpt from Chapter One 
    In 1815 the Emperor was no longer a lean, sinewy, tireless, eternally vigilant human tiger—the Napoleon of Rivoli and Marengo. He was no longer the consummate General-in-Chief of Austerlitz and Wagram. The mysterious lethargy which had overwhelmed him at the critical hour of Borodino, when he withheld the order for the Old Guard to charge and convert the Russian defeat into a decisive disaster, had been the first visit of the Evil Genius which was to come again. The strange loss of the power to decide between two totally different lines of action, which, at the Château Düben had kept him idle two days, lolling on a sofa, or sitting at his writing-table tracing on the paper big school-boy letters, was to become a recurrent calamity, puzzling all who knew him, and paralyzing the action of his lieutenants in the most critical emergencies'. 
    At Leipsic the reins had fallen from his hands; only one permanent bridge over the deep river in his rear had been provided to let him out of the death trap; and when the strong currents of the rout tore through the frantic city, the great Napoleon drifted with the furious tide, whistling vacantly. 
    The same unexplainable eclipse of genius, which General E. P. Alexander described as occurring to Stonewall Jackson, in the Malvern Hill movements of our Civil War, happened to the French Emperor, time and again, after that first collapse at Borodino. 
    In Spain he ordered a madly reckless charge of his Polish Light Cavalry against the heights of Sommo Sierra, where the Spanish army was entrenched and where the position easily admitted of successful flanking, got his best troops wastefully butchered—and could not afterward remember who gave the order to charge! 
    In Dresden, in 1813, he had won a brilliant victory which needed only to be ruthlessly pushed; and he was pushing it with all his tremendous driving power when, in the twinkle of an eye, his Evil Genius descended upon him, took his strength away...
