| Publisher Description: This is the story of a successful father describing his approach to parenting, making us think and consider what will make our children happy and successful individuals. Ravi Mahendra is a father of three young girls and he is passionate about parenting. He has personally gone on a journey of learning and developing the relationship between him and his daughters. Ravi delights in seeing his children become bigger and better individuals. Ravi believes passionately that parenting is about dedication and focus. The book is based on the principle that you are the best teacher for your children; you can pass on your knowledge and experience to help to support the best development of your child. The parent is the figure of authority, with immense responsibility for decisions regarding the children. This book draws out the benefits of really pro-actively grasping the responsibility and making the decisions rather than running with the flow. The real strength of this book lies with the thought process on determining priorities, characteristics and values that will produce successful children. It will inspire you to look at your parenting approach with a fresh set of eyes and help you to succeed on your chosen path. The book uses well-chosen examples from the world of business, politics and historical figures to really illustrate what success means and what needs to be done to achieve it. Ravi uses connection of business ideas and stories with parenting to bring a fresh perspective on children's upbringing. . The book is drawing interesting connection from management and business theories to really focus on children leading successful lives. At a practical level, the book offers a vast array of examples on managing the prosaic day-to-day issues. Unless the practical challenges are resolved, it becomes very difficult to manage the more advanced parenting questions. Ravi does a great job in visualising the impact of our actions now on the children in the future. Ravi Mahendra lives with his three daughters in London. His career spans many areas: he has built a renowned business school in his native Sri Lanka, written business columns for newspapers and is a prize-winning Qualified Accountant with an MBA. Ravi is currently working as Global Finance leader in a large insurance organisation and he is also a regular blogger on LinkedIn. His aim is to live life to the fullest and to raise his children as successful and content individuals. |
