What does it take to be a leader? This is a question that confounds many people across different industries. But perhaps the more important question is: what does it take to sustain leadership?

This week's episode of "Mad Men" was probably the most chock full of lessons for our industry. From the way the agency handled the news of losing its biggest client internally and externally to the look inside the ways it tried to offset the loss it seems as though there was almost too much to analyze.

For the next two days I'll be live blogging and tweeting and FlipCam-ing (I may need more hands) from the World Business Forum in New York City.

Over the weekend, I was lucky enough to attend "Night of Too Many Stars: An Overbooked Benefit for Autism Education," organized by Comedy Central.

As I wrote in this month's issue of PRWeek, last month marked my sixth year at the magazine.

When I first started as a reporter at PRWeek six years ago, social media truly was a burgeoning tool for PR professionals.

So, I thought the Mad Men episode three weeks ago was the best ever, but I think Sunday's episode came pretty close to earning that distinction.

This past week I had the chance to fly Virgin America for the first time and I must say that I was really impressed.
