Biografia e Jornada do Autor

Cameron Herold is a Canadian entrepreneur, operator, author, and coach whose career was shaped early by a sense that conventional schooling was not designed for him. He grew up in a small town in Northern Canada, the son of an entrepreneur, and has said that his father redirected him toward building businesses rather than fitting into a traditional job path. He attended Carleton University, but by his own account school was never where his confidence came from. What did come early was business: by age eighteen he says he had already started fourteen small ventures, and by twenty he was running a house-painting franchise with a dozen employees.
