Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

May Busch faced a wide range of challenges during her 24-year career in investment banking. From hiring the wrong people to be being shifted out of jobs and passed over for promotions, she experienced just about every pitfall, setback and misfortune the corporate world can dish out. However, those mistakes empowered May to learn what it takes to succeed in a changing workplace, achieving her goal of becoming a Managing Director and, ultimately, Morgan Stanley’s Chief Operating Officer for Europe. Now, she is using the hard lessons she learned to help other achievers take ownership of their careers and enjoy a faster, smoother climb to success.
