Open to Persuasion Mike Upton

A story of two ambitious executives each fighting to secure the one big job that has unexpectedly become available following their Managing Director's sudden announcement that he is relinquishing his role to spend more time with his wife who is suffering from a life threatening illness. Both executives are utterly determined to successfully gain the promotion. Caroline, the attractive Marketing Director deploys all her feminine wiles and charms to persuade the interview panel that they should give the job to her. But her rival the Sales Director Rob embarks on a programme of illegal incentives and other methods to secure new business to try and put himself in pole position for the job. Open To Persuasion is an intriguing story about business, but also a compelling study in how people might disregard their normal scruples and beliefs in right and wrong.
