From Ballroom to Bottom Line – In Business and In Life (Bil Holton, Ph.D. and Cher Holton, Ph.D.)- Partnerships in the “real world” have many similarities to the partnerships in the ballroom dance world. It doesn’t matter whether you are talking about a business team, a volunteer group, a contractor relationship, a circle of close friends, a special-projects team, a romantic couple, a sports team or a family. The same skills that make a ballroom dance couple successful apply to these partnerships as well. Perfect for the busy reader, each mini-chapter focuses on an aspect of ballroom dancing. A description of the concept as it relates to the world of ballroom dancing  is followed by an application of the idea as it relates to partnerships in business and in life. Each section concludes with a “Tip From Your Coaches”, focusing on how you can add this concept to your repertoire and improve your dance through life.
