In this episode of "Man Up / Man Down," we sit down with Ken Valledy, a seasoned entrepreneur and keynote speaker, to explore the journey from corporate life to entrepreneurship. Ken shares his personal story of leaving a successful marketing career to co-found Progressive Acceleration, a company that bridges the gap between startups and major corporations.
Now, as an advocate for midlife professionals, Ken offers insights into making the "great escape" from the corporate train and embracing new opportunities.
Key Takeaways:
Ken's career journey in three chapters: corporate life, entrepreneurship, and helping others. The concept of the "corporate train" and how to step off it. The importance of side hustles and how they can lead to fulfilling careers. Networking and building connections in a hybrid work environment. The impact of COVID-19 on career choices and work-life balance.
