Why should I be an entrepreneur for someone else? – Eugenie Teasley
Eugenie Teasley is the CEO of The Goodall Foundation. She has spent well over a decade working in, setting up and consulting for organisations in the UK, USA and across the globe. She founded and ran Spark+Mettle in 2011 for five years before deciding to close it down and work for someone else.
"I went and did something, and then ditched it. And now I'm like slowly moving down this slippery slope from the Guardian-reading ideology of joy and passion and dreams, down the slope into the full bowels of corporate life. And it is great."

Many people with an entrepreneurial spirit believe that they can only ever work for themselves and their personal goals and ideas. In this talk Eugenie shares her newfound love of being second in command, of what happens when your entrepreneurialism gets hijacked and you wind up working on bringing someone else's ideas to life.
