Shidler Leadership Talks: Start-up vs Professional Life

How would you go about weighing a corporate career vs small business owner start-up decision?

The reality of startup companies is that they aren’t for everyone, and on person’s cons may be another person’s pros. But evaluating what you want out of a company and where you see your future, you can determine the right fit for you. Introspect to find out what you want out of your life. And, mind you, taking the safer path is never a bad option no matter how many people on the internet tell you otherwise. You don’t want to be a rebel without any cause.

You are cordially invited to join us in this talk to learn more about the pros and cons of startup vs professional life. Our guest speakers will share with you their own experiences.
