Introduction
Today I am joined by Ken Rutkowski, a well-known Business Talk Radio Personality and the first person to ever create a podcast. Ken Rutkowski is also a business leader, entrepreneur, and influencer with one superpower: Perfect precision for knowing how and when to connect entrepreneurs, governments, and founders all over the world.
In his lifetime, Ken has interviewed over 20,000 people, and in 1996, he invented the very first automatic downloading interview show over the internet – known today as the podcast. He joins me today to speak about the power of connection, building a community, and the lessons about relationship-building he has learned throughout his career.
