"Fingerprints" ft Rich Gibbons from SpeakInc - GSIA Podcast | Agencies of Change

Rich Gibbons, President of Speak Inc., says the best advice he'd give his 1991 self had nothing to do with sales tactics — it was about whose side of the table he was really looking from. Thirty-five years later, that shift still shows up in the moments he calls the most satisfying in the business: the ones where his fingerprints are on something bigger than himself. The GSIA podcast sits down with the presidents, principals, and veterans of the speaker bureau and agency world to unpack how they got in, what almost broke them, and what they've learned about spotting real talent in a marketplace that's quickly become oversaturated. New conversation, same core questions — because the answers never sound the same twice.
