About this listen
You’re excited to join a startup and help change the world. You’re making one of the biggest decisions of your life–where to invest your career. But what do you really know about the opportunity? Do you understand the risks and how to manage them?
In The Startup Lottery, veteran entrepreneur and Inc. 500 CEO Gus Bessalel provides an insider’s view of venture-capital-backed companies. You will learn how to navigate your startup career through stories, examples, and decision frameworks.
This book will help you:
- Decide whether, when, and why working in a startup is right for you.
- Evaluate the viability of a startup you are considering joining.
- Learn how startup dynamics and rules benefit investors, not employees.
- Negotiate a better job offer and manage stock-based compensation.
- Know when it is time to move on to other opportunities.
Startup life is exciting but full of uncertainty. You need the best information possible to make smart choices. If you want to maximize your likelihood of success, this book is for you.
