When an entrepreneur decides to enter the workforce, they need to ask themselves many questions in order to determine if they are going to be a solid fit in joining a company. Here are some questions all entrepreneurs need to ask themselves. If they answer yes to over 50% of the questions, they could be ready to start working for someone else.
All entrepreneurs
Can you work for a manager?
In other words, are you ready to be managed? Are you ready for
someone else to give you work instructions and for you to follow them?
Previously as an entrepreneur, you were the one that had people waiting
for your instructions – now it’s the other way around.
Are you ready to have less creative freedom?
While at your new job, your role/vision will be important and
you will be involved in the creative process – but you will lose the
ability to “veto” other creative decisions and realize that the final
word belongs to someone else.
Are you ready to be involved in one specific area of
business?
As an entrepreneur, you dabbled in
all roles – you may have helped with 401k administration, you may have
helped hire an accountant – all while also focusing your time on
delivering strategy and helping the business succeed. As an employee,
you’ll be focused on what you were hired to do – if you are running
marketing, the company won’t be needing your advice on who the next
accountant will be.
