Description
                                    Social Media's meteoric rise has disrupted our democracies, our economies and our public health. The Capital Riot and GameStock's stock price bubble are recent examples, but there are new disruptions nearly every week. For marketers and business leaders alike, understanding how social media works to change opinions, behaviors and business outcomes is now essential to competitive advantage.
