Transitioning Mindsets – Technical Expert To Entrepreneur

Transitioning Mindsets – Technical Expert To Entrepreneur

Have you ever considered the possibility of taking the leap from Employee to Entrepreneur?  Are you a business owner who is looking towards greater entrepreneurial leadership?

In light of the current global situation, many people are facing redundancy or looking at the potential need of pivoting into a stronger leadership role as a business owner or entrepreneur and are now faced with different challenges: how do you transition mindsets?

Do we all need to upgrade our identity mindset for greater flexibility and resilience in a changing environment? 

In this podcast hosted by Catherine Connolly, Catherine interviews lawyer, author, entrepreneur and business leader Jeremy Streten, who has made great strides in the business community to bring law and it’s key elements into practical business application that everyone can understand and better prepare for. Jeremy openly discusses the challenges of pivoting from being an employee into the mindset of an entrepreneur, as well as the potential for success.

"Well, being an employee is obviously very different to being a business owner. You've got to learn so much more about actually operating the business [and] Craig and I thought we could do better than our old bosses.

We had no idea what we were getting ourselves into. If you look at it with rose coloured glasses, when you're the employee and you don't realise just how hard it is when you're doing the work every day, you think you can do it all yourself. 

I had to change the mindset of actually working on the business rather than just working in the business.

I recognised the fact that I didn't know what I was doing, running a business. And so, I got coaching around what I needed to do and learn what those different things were and found someone to actually help me through that journey. I think that the mindset shift really came from being there, doing it and going, oh my gosh, I've bitten off more than I can chew."
