Vincent, my retired CEO, is French. He struggles with English. But he speaks the cold, hard truth.
And he works with his eyes open.
Vincent was with IBM, Accenture, and Oracle before he started his company. 7 years in the corporate world demonstrated one truth.
The odds of the employment game are stacked against him.
“I asked myself whether I could continue earning 10,000 Euros at 65. My answer is no. I doubt I can stay in that stressful position as a consultant for long and at that age.”
To me, that is forward-thinking.
