Greenberg Succeeds in Recovering After Tumble

Monday afternoon, FishbowlNY alerted us to Herb Greenberg’s collapse during a speech that morning where he was discussing his latest book, Succeed on Your Own Terms. It certainly sounded as if Greenberg (right) recovered quickly, but we wanted to make sure before we mentioned it to you.

So I connected with Greenberg’s publicists this afternoon, and they assure me the incident was “dramatic but not serious,” brought on primarily by exhaustion and possibly low blood sugar. He went to the hospital for tests, but was already recovering well enough to be conducting interviews in the emergency room, and they expect him to be back in full action long before he’s scheduled to speak again in New York at the end of July.
