Fiddle Leaf Fig rescue: what next?


This FLF came home from the office with me today. It was a gift to my boss maybe 10 years ago? And has been growing in that 8" pot ever since, and in pretty low light. The plan is to repot into a 10-12" pot, in soil with extra perlite. But what should I do after that? Can I encourage any more leaves lower down, cut it back, somehow make it more compact and leafy? Or would that be asking too much of it? Although it's all tall and skinny now, it still looks like it has enough oomph left to get a better shape and keep growing.

Thanks in advance, everybody. :)
