The New Year brings a wave of aspirations for change. But what happens when festivities end and real life resumes?

Yet, New Year resolutions rarely bring us closer to the life and self-actualisation we crave. If you cherish a dream to build a company in sync with your heart and finally realise your potential, you’ll need not only a lot of courage but new thinking patterns and actions as well.

What you will get from this session:

• Crystallise your idea and assess its viability. Is it something worth your time and energy?

• Discover what is holding you back beyond the obvious factors. No, it’s not only an impostor syndrome or insufficient capital. Learn the three-axis model of decision-making and goal-setting.

• Find ‘ramps’ or ‘springboards’ to propel your growth.

• Make a clear, actionable plan of your transition from an employee to an entrepreneur to build a tech company reflecting your values and offering you a life you want.
