Are you passionate about working in the corporate world for the rest of your life? You've always wanted to start your own business. But now you're wondering if all of the time you've spent working for others has limited your ability to be your own boss.
Your time spent in corporate America was not worthless. Many of the essential skills you learned, like time management, teamwork, employee management, and communication, will immediately help you as a business owner. These are all transferrable talents that will put you in a good position when you're ready to start your own business.
Here are just a few of the benefits you gained from your corporate experience:
Immediate Credibility
Building a successful career in the corporate sector offers you immediate credibility when you decide to start your own business.
Culture Building
You've witnessed firsthand how important it is to create a great culture with strong chemistry in order to sustain a happy workplace. Many of the same culture-building methods you witnessed in the corporate setting can be applied to your business.
Critical Processes
The list of critical processes you've been exposed to while working for others provides you a significant edge when it comes to running your own business. Time management, budgeting, sales, collaboration, strategic planning, and attention to detail are examples.
Team Management
Your previous management experience gave you significant skills in hiring the right employees, establishing and overseeing a team, defining professional development goals, and mentoring.
Aside from the expertise you provide, investing in a franchise eases the move from the corporate world to business ownership. A franchise gives you an established business plan as well as a support system from both the corporate office and your network of other franchisees.
