I had a great conversation with Registered Professional Landman, Ryan Fairbanks, recently. We discussed a wide range of topics including what it is like to be an independent landman to how other oil and gas professionals and mineral/royalty owners can benefit from networking with their peers. Ryan also talks about his podcast, the Landman Pivot Podcast, and how a learning mindset can prepare us for whatever is next in life. Enjoy!
