Dan Hoffman (Former CEO, M5 Networks)


Dan makes an analogy to the role of the director of a large film to the role of a CEO. He finds that being a CEO is very similar to being a film director including casting or finding the right people, putting out the biggest fires, and making sure that all the actors or employees know the right story to tell.
