Session: From the Corporate to the Startup world
Do you have this little voice in the back of your head that tells you that maybe you should try and build your own thing? But also this other voice, who reminds you that you cannot give up your comfortable situation to venture into the unknown? After all, you don't know the first thing about building a startup. But that shouldn't stop you. In this talk, we'll discuss what to expect when transitioning from the Corporate to the Startup world, and how the ways of working in those environments are completely different.Key Takeaways
- Don't try to replicate processes picked up in a corporate environment, create new ones
- Be willing to unlearn everything you thought you knew
- Evolving your mindset is not an option, it's a must
