Entertainment One Global President Chris Taylor, Reservoir Media Management co-founder and CEO Golnar Khosrowshahi, and ole CEO and co-founder Robert Ott make the list alongside such luminaries as Daniel Glass and Scott Borchetta.


The feature profiles the individuals with quotes that include Taylor’s illuminating statement as follows:
