She belonged to a class 'C' in the community. She believed she was a nobody but was able to raise  her post through hard work. She started as a secretary in the office. Eventually, her boss promoted her to be an executive secretary. There was a time when her boss needed to go out of the country unprecedentedly, so her boss told her to take over a meeting with a client. Unexpectedly, she was able to let the client sign over a luxurious deal which in the end gave the company high earnings. From then on, her boss trusted  her to take over some deals which again promoted her as a negotiating officer in the company. Almost every night, she studied, mastered, and by heart learned all the basics and techniques of this profession which made her the most-regarded and trusted employee in her company. After 2 years, she got promoted. Then year after year, her position had elevated until such time that she became the CEO in the company.
