New Deal: NO BOOTSTRAPS WHEN YOU’RE BAREFOOT by Wes Hall
Executive Chairman and Founder of Kingsdale Advisors, The BlackNorth Initiative, and Canada's first Black Dragon on CBC's Dragon's Den, Wes Hall's NO BOOTSTRAPS WHEN YOU'RE BAREFOOT has sold to Anne Collins and Sue Kuruvilla at Random House Canada.
This new non-fiction memoir will depict Hall’s inspirational trajectory from humble and challenging beginnings in a Jamaican hut to his seat among power brokers at the Bay Street table. He will describe how he found his faith, his focus, and used his intelligence and tenacity to defy stereotypes and find opportunities.
“Working with Wes Hall on his epic journey has been a highlight of my year," said The Rights Factory agent and CEO Sam Hiyate.
NO BOOTSTRAPS WHEN YOU’RE BAREFOOT is scheduled for publication in Fall 2022.
Wes, thank you for such an insightful piece! Your analogy about being barefoot resonates deeply; I’ve felt a similar struggle in my own journey. Balancing personal ambitions while navigating systemic barriers often feels like running games with no proper gear. Your perspectives offer hope and motivation to keep pushing forward!
