Disrupt or be disrupted. It’s the mantra of the modern workforce. But what’s it really like to quit your day job? How do you know when the timing is right? And what happens if you make mistakes or your business fails? In this special episode of Xero In, JV and Rob head to Sydney fintech hub Stone & Chalk to talk to some of Australia’s leading entrepreneurs about their business journey from corporate career to start-up. “It wasn't my intention to launch a start-up, or to do something on my own. Something happened to me, and it wasn't life changing but it was so exciting, and it led to me thinking that to follow this, I’d have to step outside my corporate role,” says Katherine McConnell, CEO and founder at Brighte. Tune in as we delve deep into the world of starting out with a range of guests, who share their stories of success, failure and taking that overwhelming first step.
