About the Author

Caught plagiarizing a Ranger Rick magazine when he was eight years old, Ralph Peterson shocked everyone when the story he was made to write about the lessons he learned from the ordeal, was better than the story he copied. "It seems funny now," he says, "but I didn't know I could write my own stories. I didn't know I was allowed to make them up... to lie." 

Today, in addition to authoring three books, "Congratulations! Now Get Over Yourself: Confessions of a Management Development Coach," (2018) "Adventures in Dietland: How to Win at the Game of Dieting from a Former Fat Guy," (2017) and "Managing When No One Wants To Work: Leadership Lessons from an Executive Housekeeper," (2014), Ralph is a Professional Speaker, Life Coach and Internationally Syndicated Columnist, with his column "Five-Star Leadership with Ralph Peterson."
