LONGWOOD, FL-No matter where you are on the field, on the job, or in the pew-leadership skills, responsibility, and depth of character are required. But how do you learn those things if there's no one to show you? Author Demetri Kornegay a twenty-five year veteran police officer, a successful coach, and a seasoned mentor of young men offers this practical life guide for young men. Man Up!

Kornegay knows how to lead and believes firmly in teaching others how to build character and inner strength.
