He also co-founded and served as Managing Partner of BRaVe Ventures, a media and technology advisory and investment firm, that he successfully built, scaled, and sold.

"While I'm a big believer that the only person responsible for your career development is you, the best leaders invest in providing their people with effective, actionable training and tools," said Beck. "I'm joining The Forem advisory board because the company goes beyond inspiration and high level lessons, to empower people to take meaningful, practical actions through an actual professional development platform. Inspiration can be found everywhere; turning that inspiration into actionable steps to advance your career is what we need more of, and I'm thrilled to help The Forem lead this effort," says David.

The Forem's virtual training program aims to empower employees to navigate organizational change and build the confidence and skills needed to unlock career pathing opportunities. The Forem has seen a 200 percent growth over the past quarter and more than 100 new companies joined in January 2021 alone. The program also retained 100 percent of its Q4 2020 clients and anticipates that clients will expand to additional employees in the coming months.

"We're elated to bring in the dynamic Donna/David duo to help us scale to the next level of growth," said Alli Young, The Forem founder and CEO. "Donna's deep industry expertise in large media companies and advertising will help position our product suite to the customer segment, while David's experience as an operator and investor will be invaluable throughout our company's evolution. Both are committed to giving back, teaching what they know, and have been fantastic advocates along the way."
