From an Italian/French family β½α΅αΆ ᴬαΆα΅α΅Κ³Λ’ ᴬʳα΅β±Λ’α΅Λ’ α΅βΏα΅ α΄±βΏα΅α΅Κ³α΅α΅β±βΏα΅Κ³Λ’βΎ I have a passion for marketing and design. This combined with my background of 15+yrs. XP in Corporate as a Software Engineer spanning over 15 years β½α΄¬Λ’α΄Ύ α΄Ίβ±½αΆ αΆα΄Όα΄Ώα΄± αΆ α΄΅β±½α΄±βΎ
Allowed me to create and sell 3 small but established companies over the past decade; A Recruitment, Retail and Services based businesses. β½ΒΉβ°β»β·β° αΆ α΅Λ‘Λ‘β»α΅β±α΅α΅ α΅α΅Κ³α΅β±βΏα΅βΏα΅ αΆα΅Λ‘α΅αΆα΅α΅α΅α΅ α΅α΅α΅Λ‘α΅ΚΈα΅α΅Λ’βΎ The first thing you learn about creating a company is that you need to have an exit strategy. Until recently - well relatively speaking, about 2 years ago β½αΆα΅α΅β±α΅ Κ°α΅Λ’ α΅α΅Λ’Κ°α΅α΅ α΅Κ°β±Λ’ α΅α΅α΅βΎ, I thought that this was just about having a plan.
Selling my last business was difficult, I also almost sold too late which could have cost me another 2 years. This has also been a trend where ever I have worked and I attributed this to loyalty. What I realised, very late was that it was because I didn't have a plan to leave. Whether it was a position in someone else's company, or a position at my own company, leaving is never easy!
That's, a little about me, it was also the first thing that got my attention when I stumbled across this community (while busy searching for code, which I will get back to now), without a plan who knows where we are going?
