Why becoming an operator is the best career bet for my 20s?
Most people in their 20s pick a career they close friends are choosing. Consulting, banking, a corporate grad program is a common option. But there is another path that few people talk about that has much more potential in the AI era.
Operators work right next to a startup and business founders. Founders Associates, Chiefs of Staff, people who run Ops and GTM. They see how a company is built from the inside, take on real ownership early and learn faster than almost anywhere else.
Operator Talent, START Warsaw and SKN Biznesu is inviting You to hear from 4 different operators what this path really looks like from the inside.
