"We made a pact with ourselves that no one would ever have influence over our fate again."
You're young and ambitious, yet your guidance counsellor advises you not to try to get into a university. What do you do in this situation? You'll be assigned another counsellor! Ken Christopher had been working as a draughtsman for four years after graduating from high school and was dissatisfied with his position when an academic advisor advised him to stick with it. However, a respected YMCA administrator gave him a different piece of advice: he should get a degree in higher education. It marked a watershed moment. Ken went on to become an officer in the Canadian Army, received a master's degree, taught at two universities, and worked as a vice president of a development firm for nine years before retiring. The couple now has two boys named Robert and Douglas and is the CEO of a huge worldwide corporation. Mary Elizabeth worked as a teacher for 20 years before marrying him. They recently travelled to Maui with their entire family, including their grandchildren. "As Ken explains, "we are growing a significant corporation globally while concentrating our efforts primarily in Canada and the United States." "We are able to do so because of the business and the support we have received.
