22: Reinventing Your Tech Career with Kathryn Rose

Rock Your Reinvention: Tips For High-Achieving Women Who Want to Successfully Exit Their Six-Figure Corporate Career

What do you do when you’re 8 months pregnant, your mom has a brain aneurysm and you get laid off? You start a consulting business, of course!

At least, that’s what Tech titan and Founder of getWise and channelwise, Kathryn Rose, decided to do. She joined me to talk about her career journey and multiple reinventions over the years, including how she became an International Speaker.

We discussed the following in today’s episode:

• Why we need to elevate other women in the corporate environment and the benefits of Influence by Extension
• Reinvention is often thrusted upon us by circumstance or design
• The importance of being a Learn-It-All vs. Know-It-All during your reinvention phase
• Why she wants to deglamorize entrepreneurship and you can’t do it all yourself (you have to delegate and hire the proper staff)
• The rollercoaster of entrepreneurship but why she’d still take this over a corporate job any day
• Why we should open with price on a sales call and set the benchmark on your value
• What she loves most about being her own boss
• How she balances her two businesses, family, and volunteering

I loved her motto: disappointment is inevitable, misery is optional. Isn’t that the truth?!

She will inspire you to follow your reinvention dreams! Connect with Kathryn on LinkedIn.
