Great Leaders Need To Be Risk-Takers

The future of work is full of opportunities. But people won’t be able to take advantage of those opportunities if they don’t take risks.

It’s a philosophy Shellye Archambeau, former CEO of MetricStream, has followed her entire life. Shellye looked for opportunities early in life and took risks to get them. As an African American woman with an eye on not only working in but leading the tech industry, Shellye often had to chart her own course, but she grew by taking risks and creating success on her own terms.
