How Brian Lesser Built A Billion Dollar Digital Business Within WPP In Less Than Five Years

Brian Lesser is the CEO of Xaxis, a billion dollar division within $16 billion WPP, a British multinational advertising and public relations company. Lesser has reached this revenue hurdle in less than five years, which has positioned Xaxis among the largest global digital media platforms.
