About the Book
Wherever a person earns a living, there may exist an overreaching hierarchy of power. This hierarchy may be invisible to onlookers outside of the workplace. However, for those who earn a living beyond the veiled shadows of this work world, things are not as congenial as they seem from the outside. It is a culture fueled by privilege for the few, timidity, and an air of untouchability by those who call the shots. Striving to keep the establishment functioning and flourishing are those who achieve but are not valued or rewarded for their loyalty nor for their accomplishments. Ivory Tower Power is a satirical work that pulls back this veil and sheds light on the value of those in an organization who are often overlooked by the hierarchy while keeping the wheels of progress rolling forward. Ivory Tower Power is a fun read about a serious subject.
