Canadian Management Centre (www. cmctraining. org) and Aspatore Books are pleased to announce the release of Dr. Alfred M. Coke's latest book, The CEO's Manual for Business Planning, The Five-Page Plan That Drives Higher Performance.

This book is packed with fascinating real-life examples drawn from the author's years of managing, teaching, and consulting. Dr. Coke brings the problems of planning to life with his humor, funny stories, and alternative solutions. His Five-Page Business Plan effectively "cracks the code" for resolving traditional planning failures. You owe it to your future success to try this model.

Al Coke is an internationally recognized authority on business planning ranging from start-up through to the management of multi-billion dollar enterprises. He was Executive Consultant with IBM. As Chief of Staff for XM Satellite Radio - Canada, Dr. Coke guided the company from the initial issuance of a license, through a national product launch, and finally to an Initial Public Offering (IPO) in the record breaking time of six months.

Currently Dr. Coke is applying his experience, serving as Chairman of the Board of Strive Energy Services and as a Managing Partner of Townsend International.

Prior to entering the business world, Dr. Coke served in the Pentagon as an Organization Development Consultant to the U. S. Army's Chief of Staff. He is a highly decorated, two tour Viet Nam veteran. He is authorized to wear the Combat Infantry Badge, Expert Infantry Badge, Air Crew Wings, Parachute Badge, Expert Marksmanship Badge, Jungle Expert Patch, and the Army Staff Badge. As a career Infantry Officer he served in numerous field and staff positions in the United States, Berlin, and Korea.

Al has conducted management seminars with the Canadian Management Center for 24 years. All CMC's seminar leaders are unique individuals who offer proven teaching and facilitation skills to ensure a stimulating and rewarding learning experience. Dr. Coke's popular courses are based on his real world experiences, his extensive academic background, and his common sense translations to current business situations.

For his second book Dr. Coke chose to publish with an executive level agency. Aspatore Books is the largest and most exclusive publisher of C-level executives (CEO, CFO, CTO, CMO, partner) from the world's most respected companies and law firms. Aspatore annually publishes a select group of C-Level executives from the Global 1,000, top 250 law firms (partners and chairs), and other leading companies of all sizes. C-Level Business Intelligence TM, as conceptualized and developed by Aspatore Books, provides professionals of all levels with proven business intelligence from industry insiders - direct and unfiltered insights from those who know it best - as opposed to third party accounts offered by unknown authors and analysts. Aspatore Books is committed to publishing an innovative line of business and legal books, those which lay forth principles and offer insights that, when employed, can have a direct financial impact on the reader's business objectives, whatever they may be. In essence Aspatore publishes critical tools - need-to read as opposed to nice-to-read books for all professionals.

Canadian Management Centre, along with their world wide affiliates at the American Management Association International network, is a global not-for-profit organization that provides a full range of management training and development and educational services to individuals, companies, and government agencies worldwide. Each year, thousands of business professionals acquire the latest business know-how, valuable insights and increased confidence at our seminars, blended learning, and Corporate Learning Solutions.
