Author
Annelies George is an international finance professional who writes in her spare time. As a Dutch author she started to write in her late thirties. Her first work, ‘Nice Doing Business with You, Ma’am‘ (Dutch version), inspired by her own experiences as a female working in a male-dominated business world, was published in the fall of 2023. Due to concerns of her previous employers about the content, she was required to delay publication. Meanwhile, she began writing the Jessie Golden Earth Series which made her an international bestselling author. The first part in the series, Quest to the Unknown, won the first price in the ‘Suspense’ category of Speak Up Talk Radio. The quotes she posted on Facebook resulted in A Whisper of Thoughts, a book dedicated to her parents. Currently Annelies is finishing ‘Learn to Understand Your Original Self’ and parts 3 and 4 in the Jessie Golden Earth Series.

Book Review
“George’s firsthand experience brings authenticity to Lisa’s journey, offering an engaging and thought-provoking read. With sharp dialogue, entertaining situations, and moments of deep reflection, this book strikes a balance between humor and serious themes of gender inequality and perseverance.” Bookishbeam
“Nice Doing Business With You Ma’am is an amusing story about a business woman in a male manipulated world. Reads very easily, like a train, better a high-speed train, with humor and a message. Top story for both men and women.” Dick Kroon, CEO Hirschmann Multimedia B.V.
“Nice Doing Business With You Ma’am is a well-written and easy to read book. It provides insight with a smile and wink in the experiences of a woman in the international finance world and describes the start of a promising career to top executive. Thoroughly written with humor, excitement and – currently very real – #MeToo-situations. I read it with much pleasure.” Han Mouton, CFO Johan Cruijff Arena
“Nice Doing Business with You, Ma’am is a very enjoyable read and highly recommended. After reading the book you do start thinking…to what extent are we so woman-friendly? We still have steps to take. ” Dennis Kuipers, CEO AnylinQ, author
“It’s a powerful, easy-to-read and humorous book that deserves attention. It invites readers to think about gender inequality and the need for change, while simultaneously entertaining them with an engaging narrative and keen observations.
