"Whether you are just starting out, in the middle of your career, or a seasoned senior executive, RISK FORWARD has something for you. As I read each page I felt as if Victoria Labalme had been looking over my shoulder my entire career. She describes, in a compelling and direct way, how to deal with fear, doubts in your head, and the unknown. These are the things we face in our lives every day.
