18: Entrepreneurial You: How an Entrepreneurial Approach Catapults Your Success In Any Role, with Dorie Clark

“So many employees are just waiting for something to happen. They’re waiting to be promoted, they’re waiting for the next thing, and it’s not necessarily as clear as it used to be. So we want the employees to say, ‘Hey, here’s where I’m aiming, here’s where I want to go, what are the skills that I need to develop to get there?’” - Dorie Clark

The ability to think more entrepreneurially is essential for all leaders, even those who work within companies. In this timely conversation, Dorie Clark joins us to share her expertise on how we can become more effective leaders by embracing and leveraging our entrepreneurial mindset and capabilities, no matter what type of work setting or culture we’re engaged in.

Dorie Clark is the author of the new book Entrepreneurial You. Her past books include Reinventing You and Stand Out, which was named the #1 Leadership Book of 2015 by Inc. magazine. A former presidential campaign spokeswoman, she teaches at Duke University and writes frequently for the Harvard Business Review.

You’ll hear from Dorie on how you’ll benefit from having a willingness to talk about, and learn from, failure, as well as how to test and bring your new products and services to market - rather than just making a huge bet and praying it all works out. Dorie explains how to create multiple revenue streams to reduce risk and increase overall 'career security. And she explains why we should all be reframing the concept of what entrepreneurship truly means.
