Shownotes

Ron Skotarczak is Executive Vice President for Marketing Sponsorships for the Madison Square Garden Entertainment Corporation.

In his role, Ron leads two of the three sales teams responsible for promoting four professional sports teams (NY Rangers & NY Knicks), seven venues (MSG, Radio City Music Hall) and two regional sports networks. 

On this podcast, Ron and I discuss:

·     His journey from growing up in the Port Richmond section of Philadelphia that ultimately led him to Madison Square Garden. 

·     How he initially struggled transitioning from sales person to sales leader.

·     Why great leaders need to be great listeners.

·     Why we can’t get shell shocked by failure.

·     How to develop vision and create a winning culture on your team. 

·     Why Ron looks at every day like a 15 round heavyweight fight

·     Why human relationships are the most import thing in the world.

·     Lessons learned from the COVID-19 shutdown.
