Sinopsis

The courageous pilots of the Royal Air Force who faced the Luftwaffe in the Battle of Britain, affectionately known as 'the Few', are rightly hailed as heroes. Recently, efforts have been made to recognise the thousands who supported RAF operations behind the scenes. And yet one group remains missing from the narrative: the Women's Auxiliary Air Force. WAAFs worked within the Dowding System, the world's most sophisticated air defence network. Throughout the Blitz, they used radar to aid Fighter and Bomber Commands in protecting Britain's civilians. WAAFs were also behind the discovery of the terrifying German V-weapons. Their work was critical ahead of the Normandy landings and they were present in their hundreds at Bletchley Park. In this thrilling book, Sarah-Louise Miller celebrates their wartime contribution to British military intelligence. Hidden behind the Few but vital to their success, WAAFs supplied the RAF with life-saving information. Here, for the first time, is their story.

    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.
