Wendy Laister’s career has taken her from London University, where she graduated with first class honors in Psychology, to the music industry, where she currently manages a number of internationally known artists. En route, she spent time in the Public Affairs Department of British Petroleum as an industrial psychologist with the PA Consultancy Group and as Manager of Corporate Press and Public Relations for Richard Branson’s Virgin Group.

During her ten years as President her client base grew to include The Rolling Stones, Guns ‘N Roses, Sir Paul McCartney, Janet Jackson, Prince, INXS and Tina Turner, among many others.

In 1994 Laister moved into a different part of the business, taking over the exclusive worldwide management of the rock band Aerosmith and forming a new company – Magus Entertainment. During the years that followed, Aerosmith’s enormous popularity continued to grow as she spearheaded successful campaigns around three multi-platinum albums, their first #1 US single, two record-breaking world tours, the launch of an Aerosmith Disney ride and the release of a New York Times best-selling autobiography.
