Heritage, Our History

Dale Carnegie, the Man

Who was Dale Carnegie? First you must understand who he was not. Dale Carnegie was not a man afraid to pursue his dreams. Dale Carnegie was not someone who was hesitant to roll up his sleeves, logging hours in his pursuit of personal growth. And most of all, Dale Carnegie was not a stranger to success.

What We Believe In

Carnegie recognized that many people, including himself, were held back by their fears, doubts, and the availability of learning resources.
