Like a good digital project manager, Thomas Edison was a guy who got things done. He started over 200 companies and patented over 1,000 inventions, yet he had just 3 months of formal schooling. What can we learn from his success, as it relates to digital PM? He was a master of delegation, and he wasn't afraid to be bold. Originally presented by Karl Sakas of Agency Firebox as "What Thomas Edison Can Teach Us About Digital PM" to 300 digital PMs and marketing agency owners at the Digital PM Summit in Austin, Texas, on October 6, 2014. #DPM2014
