How To Start A Bidness

This weekend I moderated an entrepreneurship panel at my reunion:

Thinking of starting your own business? Ever wonder what it takes? Panelists JAMES GUTIERREZ, CEO and Co-Founder of Progreso Financiero, and DAVID FISCHER, Principal at both DreamStaffing and Avity, will share their experiences from the front lines of the business battlefield. The discussion will include additional perspectives and advice from the audience regarding navigating today’s unique business environment. Moderated by ANITTAH PATRICK, Founder of CATEGORY:OTHER.

The panel discussed the impact of today’s financial environment on their businesses, shared encouraging words for those who are thinking of starting their own company, and commented on matters ranging from how to identify bad apples on your team and what to do with them as well as the role of the cult of personality in starting a company.

Much thanks to both David and James for participating, as well as Angel Falcon for organizing.

People like me probably shouldn’t be allowed to start their own companies.
