Unlearning and Relearning: My Transition from Corporate to Startup Co-Founder Transitioning from a structured corporate role to being a startup co-founder, I've had to unlearn and relearn several key aspects: ?? Unlearning: 1. Predictability to Flexibility: Moving away from predictable routines to embrace flexibility and spontaneity in my work. 2. Strategizing to Doing: In corporates, you are expected to have a strategy and alignment even for small work items. In startups, time is of the essence and 0 to 1 nature begets testing multiple things and seeing which one sticks. 3. Risk Aversion to Risk Embracement: As a startup founder, the odds are stacked against you and you need to embrace risk everyday on the decisions you make. ?? Relearning: 1. Constant Adaptation: Embracing continuous learning and upskilling to take care of every aspect of the startup. 2. Resilience in the Face of Failure: Understanding that failure is part of the journey and a stepping stone to success. We have already pivoted once but are much more confident of the new normal. Startups go multiple pivots before hitting gold and the aim is to survive through them and move quickly. 3. Innovative Problem Solving: Developing creative and out-of-the-box solutions to overcome unique challenges and resource constraints. 4. Building a Visionary Mindset: Cultivating a visionary approach to foresee market trends and potential opportunities. Investors need to see you as the authority of your industry and that you have the pulse of where the market is heading. ?? This journey has been an incredible learning curve, filled with both challenges and triumphs. It's a path of constant growth, resilience, and discovery. ?? If you're contemplating this transition, brace yourself for an exciting and transformative adventure and am happy to help in any way I can!
