This is a collection of lessons on balancing the personal and professional responsibilities of leadership. The author, a former investment banker and Harvard Business School alumna, was so affected by her distinguished professors' parting anecdotes and advice to graduating students that she wanted to share their informal speeches with a wider audience. Remember Who You Are imparts lessons learned not in business, but in life.
