INSIGHT

Separate Your Worth From A Failed Project

  • Joe is romanticizing a failed startup and placing its mission above his own achievements.
  • Neil and Charlie urge him to view his value as independent from that organization's failure.
ANECDOTE

From Intern To Full-Time Then Cut Loose

  • Joe went from unpaid intern to the institute's only full-time employee and later got cut loose.
  • That experience shaped his confidence and lingering attachment to the institute.
ADVICE

Create The Job By Proving Value

  • Don't wait for a perfect title; prove value by solving problems and creating the job you want.
  • Focus on demonstrable skills (like recruiting, partnerships, conversions) instead of chasing 'head of' roles.
