"PLAYING FOR KEEPS" in business is a self-help memoir that provides a "cheat sheet" for your career success.
Best-Selling and Award-Winning Author, Mom and Mentor Therese Allison is recognized as a groundbreaking pioneer and female executive, who broke the glass ceiling in a mostly male business niche (insurance brokerage). Her goal now is to empower women (and men) to "WIN" in business and life by landing a dream job, building business allies, achieving financial success and creating a work/life balance.
Based on 35 years of years of success in business and life, Allison uncovers how she became financially independent at age 38 when her company (McKenna & Associates) was sold to AON, and then retired early at age 43 to spend quality time with her children.

What people are saying about "Playing for Keeps""The book is a portrait of a successful businesswoman, but also a love letter to Allison's family heritage." - Matt Szabo, The Los Angeles Times
"Business adventures and a bold family's history merge in this compelling, entertaining and fact-filled narrative...the author weaves clear personal leadership take-aways into her own challenges and aspirations, with links back to the compelling history of her predecessors in her family..." -Bruce Craven - Faculty, Columbia Business School, Executive Education
"After reading "PLAYING FOR KEEPS", I went through several rounds of interviews for two DA's offices. Out of 100 applicants, I was fortunate to be offered both jobs. The whole time I was thinking of your tips to success, especially at times when I was the only female in the room. I kept telling myself 'people work with people they like, so just be likeable!!!'." - Kaitlin R.
"Therese Allison presents us with a book that is in part a family memoir and in part an insight into the mindset of an extremely successful businesswoman. I laughed, I cried and I scribbled down lessons I wanted to learn. This intimate biography is inspiring and timeless. If you have ever dreamed of retiring at 43 and wondered how you can achieve such a thing, then this is a book you can't afford to pass by." - Artisan Book Review
