Bio
Rasie Bamigbade - Leadership Coach/Published Author
I have always imagined being a published author from a very young age. I wrote for many years but I never wrote past one chapter. I kept on changing topic with the thought that it will help. Working with Dr. Francis helped me from being stuck to publishing a Bestseller on Amzon - "Lead in your Truth." He has a simple and effective structure. He is approachable, consistent with giving feedback throughout the process. What I enjoyed the most is that he had a solution for any stage that I was stuck at. I wrote and published my book in 60 days. I highly recommend Dr. Francis and his team at Author's Academy. You will reach the result you desire in your author's journey.

His approach makes book writing easy for entrepreneurs like me. I have also share powerful round table discussions on the future of entrepreneurship. Being part of his network has been an added value
