The Enterprise Iain Show

No One Told Me I Could Be My Own Boss!

Episode Summary

Is it better to have a job you hate with security, but be unhappy, or be your own boss and be happy? Pickle Misery - that's the debate for today. Plus why do we not know it's ok to be your own boss! The good news is that times are changing as we hear from Julie Degnan of Scotland's Enterprising Schools.

Episode Notes

Do you feel the pressure to get a qualification and then get a job, feel you are letting people down if you don't.  Is being self employed seen as a viable career?

When the enjoyment is overpowered by the burden of the job, perhaps it's time to change?

Scotland's Enterprising Schools are helping to change the world by helping children being enterprising. Children 3-18 years - all young people are taught self employment and entrepreneurship as a business opportunity as part of the school curriculum.

We love it.  We want our children to know that being your own boss is an option for all of them should they wish to be!
