A first-hand account of a pioneering woman s experiences in the world of business and computing.
Across the Divide recounts a 50-year journey of epic proportions in technology, from the 1960s when transistor-tube computers filled spaces the size of football fields to widespread adoption of PCs in the 1980s and finally into today's world of web-based cloud computing.

Undeterred when IBM policy forced her to leave her job as a punch card programmer when pregnant, Susan S. Elliott went on to form her globally successful company Systems Services Enterprises (SSE) which today produces a series of highly successful custom eLearning and mLearning solutions.
Across the Divide is not only an interesting account of the rapid evolution of computer technology and an informative and instructive guide to achieving success in the world of business, it is an inspiring story of a woman's dedication and passion to succeed, no matter what the obstacles. Susan's wins and perseverance are impressive and inspiring; the positive energy jumps off the page.
