Author of fourteen books on communication, leadership, training and development, and human resources management, a three-volume set of memoirs, and more than one hundred journal articles, he has also written a biweekly column on management and communication for a Cape Cod newspaper and Strands of Memory, Strands of Memory Revisited, and Strands of Memory Reprised, three companion volumes of the current book.
Married for fifty-three years to a wonderful wife and mother, now deceased, he is the proud father of six children, twelve grandchildren, and three great-grandchildren. Bill has been writing poetry for over thirty years and has published more than sixty poems. To him, verse, both free and rhyming, is an invaluable means of releasing pent-up emotions and for painting beautiful, sad, or joyous pictures with words. Writing is viewed as a gift that has helped him to survive, heal, and grow.view less
