What I'm Learning in My Third Act

But really, the podcast has been more for her to figure out what she wants to do in her own third act. Read the major lessons she learned producing the first season of Third Act, and her plans for the next stage of her journey.

How boards can lead digital transformation efforts
Companies are feeling the pressure from shareholders to reap the benefits of digital transformation before a start-up lures away its customer base. Athena member Adis Vila recently shared the board perspective along with a thoughtful presentation by RSM professionals. The webinar, entitled “How Boards Can Lead Digital Transformation Efforts,” is available on the Directors & Boards website for a limited time.
