Finding your cadence to thrive as an entrepreneur
Success doesn’t come just from working harder or working smarter. True success comes from finding your cadence and knowing what you’re working towards. Kurt walks through the lessons he’s learned building teams around the world, mentoring new leaders and being taught by some incredible entrepreneurs.
Kurt’s given this talk dozens of times and the material behind it is often part of his coaching and mentoring. Below is the version of the slides from the TAG Entrepreneurs event December 4th, 2014 @ Georgia Tech’s Advanced Technology Development Center (ATDC),

TAG Entrepreneurs
The TAG Entrepreneurs society provides programming designed to educate, challenge, inspire and support entrepreneurs as well as those who have a stake in their success.
We’re excited to introduce a new programming theme titled “Mind the Gap.” Beginning September 2012, our monthly speaker series will explore the challenges or “gaps” faced by startups and especially those encountered in forging strategic collaborations with Fortune 1000 companies. We will feature entrepreneurs and executives from Fortune 1000 companies who have successfully navigated these waters and each month the speaker(s) will offer best practices and/or case studies in these areas. “Rock star” entrepreneurs will, of course, be a part of the calendar periodically.
Kurt is a globally-recognized 10x marketer, operator, and speaker. He has built and run early-stage companies as well as those over $1B in annual revenue, assembled teams across six continents, been part of the small team leading an IPO ($880M), and participated in dozens of acquisitions. His unique experience being inside hundreds of high-growth companies with the opportunity to analyze, scale, make changes of leadership, and oversee operations has labeled him “the king of scaling companies”. This has enabled him to advise thousands of leaders, from startup founders to the President of the United States.
