On this week's rapid fire Q&A, Taco Bell CEO Sean Tresvant tells LinkedIn Editor-in Chief Dan Roth why he considers his employees' work/life balance "mandatory," how art appreciation helps him get unstuck, how to decide how to upskill, and how observing his customers customized their orders changed his "go-to" meal.

Brand awareness is one thing. Brand nostalgia is quite another. Creating is hard enough. Maintaining it may be even harder. But it's second nature to Sean Tresvant, the brand-new CEO of Taco Bell, who cut his teeth in key marketing positions at Nike, Sports Illustrated and PepsiCo. That said, there is nothing ordinary about the challenge of nurturing and maturing this 60-year-old brand. It takes respect for the past and a willingness to charge into the future. "We have a DNA of feeding curiosity for the unconventional," Tresvant told me for the latest edition of This is Working. "We believe that's what Glenn Bell was trying to do 60, 62 years ago when he kind of introduced tacos to the mainstream of the U.S. And we try to carry that DNA for 62 years and 62 years beyond that."

What do LeBron James, Anthony Davis and Draymond Green have in common? Well, THAT, of course. But they are also all represented by Rich Paul, arguably the most driven, innovative and influential sports agent in the game. It didn't come easy. Raised in a tough Cleveland neighborhood, Paul leaned on and learned from a wise dad who provided, as Paul puts it now, a solid foundation.
But the author of the self-deprecatingly-titled memoir "Lucky Me" also learned a thing or two about the powerful, positive impact of adversity. That it might even be a necessary precondition for success. LinkedIn Editor-in-Chief Dan Roth talked to Paul about leveraging adversity, the right — and wrong — kind of ego, and what you can learn about representing superstars from ironing clothes.
