These stories shape our emotions and behavior, making us think and act like either a hero or a victim. Be the Hero shows you how to choose the stories that lead to personal and professional success.In the tradition of the best storytellers, Blumenthal weaves a tale of a young professional’s journey from victim to hero, one that is both captivating and profound. The powerful resources at the end of the book, including a hero tip of the week, smart cards, manager tip sheets, and more, will help you make your hero stories stick.
