Right Risk is the first self-help book to focus solely on building personal courage. Published in four languages, Right Risk draws upon author Bill Treasurer’s experience as an organizational development professional and former daredevil athlete. During Bill’s 7 years as a traveling member of the U.S. High Diving Team, he performed over 1500 high dives from heights that scaled to over 100 feet – the equivalent of a 10-story building. Bill takes the lessons that he learned as a captain of the U.S. High Diving Team, and uses them to help readers face whatever high dives they may be facing.
