About the Author
As a boy, Leon asked, Whats beyond Nassau? What adventures await? He could have been a fisherman, farmer, or minister. He asked for Gods intervention, and he became a unique fisher of men. Though his journey took him far from The Bahamas, he returned to a greater and higher vision.
Barefoot to Boardroom chronicles Leons unique journey and important milestones. His rise from an impoverished upbringing to an accomplished educator is noteworthy. As you follow his journey, you will meet people who nurtured him. You will gain insight into his relationship with his sons, a turbulent marriage, and an intriguing rebirth. Leons stay in the United States provides for exciting reading, but his rise to a college presidency in The Bahamas, a Director of Higher Education and the Secretary General for The Bahamas National Commission for UNESCO is insightful and motivational.
Barefoot to Boardroom reminds us of our dreams and how to convert them into realities.

The book is an easy read that will keep your attention from the anecdotal story of the key his kindergarten teacher thought she lost to the golden key that unlocked the “Boardroom” door. The book is a testimony of faith that could be your story, his accomplishments could be your accomplishments, and his life is a reflection of God’s promise for us to “ask, and it shall be given…; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened...”
I highly recommend this book to everyone, because it will help “identify and develop your gifts so that you can make your unique contribution to society.” This is a read that will not only make an indelible impression on you, but will be an impetus to change your life!
