Ep 227: Rich Bressler

This week’s guest is Rich Bressler, the President, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer of iHeartMedia and iHeartCommunications.

iHeart is both a highly creative and a highly complicated business. The company has 13,000 employees in the United States, spread over 150 offices for 850 radio stations.

And how do you create room for listening in a world filled with sound?
