Innovation Ignited: Fueling Entrepreneurial Growth (Ft. Rory Golod)
On the show today, we welcome Rory Golod. The SVP of Growth and Communications at Compass. Not only is Rory a fearless leader, someone you can learn a lot from, and an example of someone truly introspective, but he is also a kick-ass guitar player! We have a great conversation today about how his childhood in Cold Spring Harbor and how that shaped the man he is today, how his guitar-playing journey started at 11, and why he loves perpetual activities. We learn about the different stops along his career journey to where he is today, at Compass, and why he thinks business FOMO is the worst of its kind! We reflect on the common thread of his compilation of positions and talk about inspirational people in his life. To learn more about Rory and to find out if he answers not five, but six, of my fearless five questions, start listening now!
