Did your pre-nuptial agreement have a non-compete clause?
Have you seriously considered naming your children
"Standard" and "Poors?" No matter how busy you get, do you
still find time to ignore the people you love most? If you
answered "yes" to (or even laughed knowingly at) any of
these questions, you may have that not-so-rare condition
called "CEO Dad-ism." Left unchecked, this syndrome can
result in permanent "CEO Dad-itude" and leave you blissfully
unaware of how much your loving family may actually be
taking steps to downsize your sorry butt. Of course, the odyssey of CEO DAD, the protagonist of my new
book and subject of my syndicated comic strip, is writ very,
very large. He treats his family like a corporation and so
must suffer the debilitating ordeal of being a lab rat for
pseudo-science, a desperate near-criminal, and, finally,
getting fired by his family on national television. How does CEO DAD make it through the pain and become a
better person? By, I hope, making you laugh all the way to
work-life balance. In reality, it took some extremely
painful and even life-threatening moments for me, Tom Stern,
to wake up to how I had gotten my priorities all wrong. The
fact that I can laugh at it now is a gift, and one that I
take great pleasure in sharing with you, my readers, whose
inner CEO DAD will no doubt relate to, laugh at, and learn
from the fictional creation in this book. Enjoy, Tom Stern
