    "Senior leadership is a more encompassing role than it was a decade ago. You’re dealing with constant change and uncertainty.

    There’s a new type of workforce, a greater focus on transparency and governance, the 24-hour news cycle and cryptocurrency is changing how we deal with money. We understand this."
