In this episode of the 5 Leadership Questions podcast, Todd Adkins and Chandler Vannoy are joined by Tami Heim, President/CEO of Christian Leadership Alliance. They discuss the following questions:

* What are some of the trends you think we are experiencing now? And how do we look ahead to the future about leading in an innovative way?* What have you learned about technology disruption and what would you say to leaders so they don't view it in fear but as how we leverage it instead?* Who or what has been the greatest leadership influence in your life?* How did you feel that God refined your ambition and made it honoring in Him while also wanting to lead out?* What advice would you share with someone who is trying to take risks but is scared of failure?
