Oh Yeah? Watch This! eBook

"Oh Yeah … Watch This!" is the story of the making of a man. Born amid tragedy, Lloyd Edward "Ed" Allen Jr. endured an abused and lonely boyhood to become a Naval Flight officer, the Captain of an aircraft carrier, and a Navy Rear Admiral. After his experience in the corporate world, he founded the Executive Success Group, coaching executives, sharing his insights on leadership and achieving business results.

In this powerful and poignant memoir, Allen brings those insights, and much more, to a wider audience. Here you will meet another Ed Allen who was grappling with the lingering pains of the past that drove him to accomplishment. He shares not only the accolades but the anguish. Even as he rose to more senior levels in the military and in business, this was a soul in search of self. You see a hurting man looking upward and asking, "Why?" - and he takes you with him on a journey of forgiveness and closure.

Few other memoirs have dealt so honestly with what it means to be human. "On the way to higher ground," Allen tells us in the opening pages, "I often slipped and fell and shouted in pain, but I grew stronger as I climbed to where, at long last, I could see the view." To anyone thinking that making it to the mountaintop is an impossible dream, this is Allen’s challenge: "Oh Yeah ...Watch This!"
