For over 20 years, Doug Sundheim has helped leaders from Fortune 500 companies to small entrepreneurial firms get out of their comfort zones to take smart risks. His approach is grounded in both research-based practices and firing-line experiences for what really works in business.

Here's what Michael Hejtmanek, President & CEO of camera company Hasselblad Bron Inc., has to say about Taking Smart Risks:

Doug lives with his wife and two sons outside New York City. Connect with him at Twitter.com/DougSundheim, LinkedIn/ ...more
