TAKEAWAYS 
The 2020s are a ripe time for those in digital (technology) fields: cloud, cybersecurity, data science, human-centered design, and the like. 

A “rising digital leader” is an ambitious professional who leverages their technical background and transforms into a business leader — a person that has significant organizational impact and unlocks a better personal life. 

Recent research shows how companies with digital-savvy executive teams outperform competitors by 48% (growth and valuation). 

But only 7% of companies even have digital-savvy leadership teams in place — this is your opportunity to capture. 

There are several types of digital leaders: CxO, professional services (consulting) leader, product leader, or entrepreneur. 

While you can choose your ideal destination, the path is similar. 

By following the learnings from this show, you’ll create a better professional experience and live a more thriving personal life (freedom of wealth, health, and time).
