Step Zero: Attitude, Energy, and Approach
Step Zero is a foundational guide for professionals who want to win before the first word is spoken. Written by David J. Long, the book focuses on the mindset, energy, and approach that determine success long before the meet-and-greet, the interview, or the selection process. It’s not about scripts or tactics — it’s about building the internal framework that drives consistent, world-class performance in every interaction.
