Would you rather be a business owner or a top-tier business executive?
On today’s episode, host Mark de Grasse sits down with Kyle Porter, the Director of Strategy at Conklin Media, to talk about the difference between running your own business and becoming a top-tier company executive.
Running your own business is not as star-studded as most people would like to believe. But still, the allure of being in charge of everything appeals to many people. On the other hand, most people cannot resist the steady salary and job security of full-time employment.
There’s no universal answer on whether you should go after employment or self-employment. The good news, as Kyle explains, is you can try your hand at both of these career paths and move back and forth as many times as you want.
Tune in to learn the difference between an entrepreneur and a business executive. Discover how you can transition in and out of either career path and still be successful.
