then this conversation is for you!
Edwin Handschuh, CEO of 1Konto, a digital assets platform and creator of an institutional venue for zero counterparty risk, explains what led him to leave his flourishing job at a renowned bank.
He drops so many nuggets:
🎤 "Starting a company from scratch without prior experience was a big risk, but it was the only way to get that experience.."
🎤 "Most people overestimate the risk in making career goals: what is your actual risk? You're not facing financial ruin if you screw up. You're basically you're gonna have to go work for somebody else again..."
🎤 "Go work at a startup. And once you do a year, two years, three years in a startup, that's like 10! And you can come back to corporate America if you want and jump over that ceiling..."
And many, many more!
