Burning Ambition Academy's Michelle Thomas on Inspiring Today's Leaders

Many in media and marketing focus primarily on understanding new technology as the industry continues to shift. While that's essential, it's not the only critical area of learning needed to keep pace with today's industry upheaval. Industry leaders should also get personal, according to Michelle Thomas, senior vice president of Spark Foundry's Burning Ambition Academy. Thomas asserts that to achieve the personal and professional development necessary to succeed today, leaders must explore their fears while developing a sense of inner purpose within a safe environment.
