Considering Leaving Your Job For Entrepreneurship? You need a plan…

Have you ever found yourself unsatisfied with what you were doing or where you were going in your career? Do you have dreams of entrepreneurship? You’re not alone. Read about Shawn’s story how discovering your leadership & branding strengths and weaknesses can solve the problem of being unable to transition from employee to entrepreneur. 

I received a call into my office from a man named, Shawn, who was struggling with his current job and wanted to transition from working a job for someone else to starting his own business. He was working on the business part time and was using his own money to fund the business. He was spending late hours working on projects and developing his company. Unfortunately, he found himself spinning his wheels trying to figure out how to be the most effective at his business and how to create the right strategies for his business and brand.

After speaking with him, I noticed that he had not identified his strengths and weaknesses as a leader or his branding strengths and branding reputation. I shared with Shawn, that he needed a leadership & branding strengths profile and a gap analysis of where his development is and where he desired for it to be. Besides lowering his stress & wasting time spinning his wheels trying to figure out things, the benefits of the profile is: 

• Gives a snap shot of your leadership and branding as it is today
• Identifies your strengths as a leader and business owner 
• Identifies your weaknesses that could be hindering growth
• Clarifies a path of development to close the gap of performance 
• Helps give you insight so that you can get a better business strategy

I further explained that it will help Shawn to create a plan to transition to from an employee to entrepreneur. Shawn decided to start the journey of personal & business leadership and branding. 

Gaining clarity on where you are, who you are, and the message, product, or service you offer is the one of the most crucial steps to transition from employee to entrepreneur. When a person works for someone else, their boss will them what they should focus on. However, when an individual works for themselves, they are the ones who steer the ship and make the decisions. Thus, it is essential for them to discover the best and greatest skills.

I’m a good referral for your client, Shawn, who complains about his job and talks about owning his own business one day. The next time you are at lunch together tell him to call Lorinda at (678) 826-2990 or introduce us in a 3-way email at info@lorindabuckingham.com, to get a Free discovery consultation to start his very own personal and branding profile to start a transition plan towards their dream business.
