Building on the current era of Industry 4.0 and Web 4.0, we frequently talk about 4.0 Leaders. This is a leader who has the skills to navigate the demands of this 4.0 era. We are still evolving from many years of productivity and production where we refer to this era and time period of leadership as the 2.0 leader.

As leaders, we have the opportunity to help people find new possibilities personally and professionally with proactive planning. Be a light. It really matters.
