Every leader knows how important listening is. But how often do we break it down and try to understand what it actually means to be a good listener? 

Today’s guest, Rob Light, can really help us answer that question. He’s the Managing Partner of Creative Artists Agency, the world’s largest talent and sports agency. As the head of their music division, he has represented some huge names like Bruce Springsteen, Beyonce, Prince, Dua Lipa, and more. 

Being a good listener is key to Rob’s success – from landing new clients, striking great deals, mentoring young talent. He knows how to be present, ask questions, and genuinely care about the answers.

This conversation is the perfect reminder that we can accomplish so much more as leaders when we learn to listen.
