Summary

On today's show I am joined by Jo Burston. Jo is the founder and CEO of Job Capital, a company she grew from nothing to $40M in less than 5 years with a team of 12. She is also the founder and CEO of the entrepreneurial movement Inspiring Rare Birds. Jo has been recognised as one of Australia's top entrepreneurs for the past six years and is a leading authority on global women's entrepreneurship. Jo is also extremely passionate about building business skills in kids. Jo collaborated with Phronesis Academy co-founder Dr Richard Seymour, from the University of Sydney to develop its first program startup.business. The program is being taught in primary and secondary schools and is being rolled out nationally. In this interview Jo speaks about the sliding door moment that started her on the path to being an entrepreneur, the skills she believes are required to be a great entrepreneur and how she has dealt with adversity. There are some amazing insights in this interview - everything from daily routines to meditation. I'm sure you will take something of value away from it.
