Corporate-to-Independent Readiness Test · JRDN Advisory

You are thinking about going
out on your own.
But are you ready - really?

Most senior professionals who consider going independent underestimate what it actually takes - and overestimate how ready they are. This diagnostic covers the four things that actually determine whether it works: mindset, financial readiness, market positioning, and pipeline.

I made this transition myself - from 28 years inside AWS, Deloitte, and KPMG to building my own practice. I know exactly what the gap feels like between thinking about it and actually being ready for it. These questions are the ones I wish someone had asked me.
