WHAT IS THE HERO ROUND TABLE?

...that includes a risk or sacrifice.
Preparing for heroism does not have to include those three things. Looking for opportunities to do little good things every day is a key piece of hero training. Our speakers address the preparation (or training) for heroism as well as the act itself.
