My Fight to the Top

The perfect blend of business and drama, My Fight to the Top is a unique, heart-rending autobiography that has mass appeal, whether the reader wants to learn how to get ahead in business, or simply learn how to keep it together through life's challenges. From the rough East End of Glasgow, Michelle Mone overcame the physical violence of school bullies, the emotional trauma of financial difficulties at home, and the tragic paralysis of her father, to become one of the UK's most respected entrepreneurial women. From the simple experience of wearing an uncomfortable bra, Michelle created the Ultimo brand, now worth £50m. However, the road has been far from smooth, and the pressure of trying to build a business and be a good mother brought her marriage—and her health—to the edge. But with steely determination she fought back, striving to make Ultimo a genuine success story.

Michelle Mone is the founder of MJM International Ltd, which owns the Ultimo brand.
