The person that I admire the most with regards to communication is Bob Iger, who's the CEO of Disney. I've always looked up to him because he leads with humility and kindness. I think every single time that I've heard him speak or the book that he's written that I've read, there's a level of self-awareness and humility to his story that I've just admired and appreciated.

What have you learned from Stan Druckenmiller? Stan has been someone I've looked up to. I feel fortunate for how much time he's been willing to give me over the course of my career. But I think what I've learned from him is both to focus on the macro and the micro.

I think he just has such an incredible lens into the world and all of the different factors that are impacting the world, but also everything. an appreciation for quality of companies and quality of founders. And the ability to do both so well is something that I've learned so much from. And he also just has a way of focusing on simplicity as well that I've admired so much.

I think I've learned a lot from Henry with regards to what it takes to build a firm, how important people are within an organization. Henry, in many respects, created private equity as an industry. I think for him to pass down the lessons that he's accumulated over the course of his career have been tremendously beneficial with regards to how we're thinking about building the firm.

Every step of the way, KKR has innovated in terms of becoming the firm that it is today because they created the industry. They created the LBL. As we think about rules and doing things that are different, having him as someone that I can constantly go to to kind of get advice and guidance is something that I feel fortunate to have.

What about David Geffen? I love David so much. I look up to him in so many ways. And I think David has always been such a big proponent of helping me from a very young age not care about what other people think. He's always just been such a great person to kind of get advice from on both life and business oriented things and has just been such an incredible mirror.

He has always constantly expressed to me that you only have one life and you need to live your life and you need to be who you are and you shouldn't care about what other people think because at the end of the day, It's only about what you think about yourself, but also he's definitely showed me that that's the case too.

Fatherhood is amazing because all the cliches of fatherhood are true. Daniel Lack actually had this great line to me before Levi was born, which he said, children fill a void that you didn't know you had. What a good line. And it leads to a level of simplification and prioritization in your life that is extremely powerful.
