Backstage Pass: A Business Book That's Far From Conventional
Harvey Lee
It started with Sex, Drugs and Rock and Roll and finished in a well-cut suit.
Ask anyone with a dream: The road to success can be akin to riding shotgun on the Highway to Hell, as Harvey Lee, rebel turned Vice President of Product Marketing will testify...
From modest beginnings in Northern England, to the promised land of the USA, Harvey recalls how he was forced to grab life by the horns, and embarked on a 40-year white-knuckle ride through the business world, establishing himself as an MBA-level trained and renowned product marketer.
But it wasn't always smooth sailing. Harvey shares how he survived and thrived in the cut-throat music industry before joining the corporate world and launching the original Xbox.
Part business book, part personal memoir, Backstage Pass is packed with hilarious tales spanning music, videogame, and technology industries. But behind the humour lay stories of grit and determination that'll leave you invigorated, inspired, and equipped to embark on an adventure of your own making.
Regardless of your past, present, or future aspirations, this tale of personal growth, born from a passion for music, will strike a chord with anyone pursuing a dream and leave you shouting, "Encore!"
