Millennial CEOs in today’s business climate face a changing role from the traditional leadership image of the suit in the C-suite, especially when it comes to sales.

While some would argue that these sites are mostly used as a place for consumers to complain about their negative experiences with local businesses, that’s almost always not the case.

One of the people I respect the most in the VC/PE media ecosystem is Dan Primack. I’ve been an avid reader of Dan’s Term Sheet while he was at Fortune , and now Pro Rata at Axios.
