Reader, One of the things I love about entrepreneurship is the amazing women I get to meet! This week's podcast guest is Dane Tang, corporate leader turned entrepreneur. Dane left a highly accomplished career as a global leader in blue chip companies like Shell, LVMH, Johnson & Johnson, and Burger King to start a coaching company called DesignFuture. She helps CEOs, CHROs, and senior leaders redefine workplace culture to meet the demands of a fast-changing world. We chatted about her journey making the transition from employee to entrepreneur and how she navigates the inevitable challenges that come up. You're not alone if you find it hard to make that transition. Highly successful women like Dane also had to grapple with the identity shifts needed to make this transition. You'll be inspired and get practical tips on how to overcome these challenges so you can keep going for your dreams! Listen on:
