Before You Sign Anything: Preserving Your Options As You Move into Your Next Chapter

​Join Devon, Richard and Second Harvest Alum, Brie Kluytenaar an employment attorney, strategic advisor to founders and executives, for a practical conversation about protecting yourself as you close one professional chapter and begin another.

​We’ll cover:

• ​Understanding what you are entitled to, what you may be giving up, and which obligations could follow you when you leave

• ​Negotiating severance, equity, bonuses, benefits, restrictive covenants, confidentiality, and intellectual property

• ​Knowing when to push, when to trade, and how your negotiation can shape the relationship you leave behind

• ​Preserving your options and avoiding terms that unnecessarily limit what you can do next

• ​Setting up consulting, fractional, or advisory work to support the life and career you want to build

• ​Knowing when you need a lawyer and which questions are worth asking

​Brie will also share real-world examples from her years advising founders and executives, along with personal stories from Devon and Richard about their own professional transitions and why sometimes doing less is exactly what creates the space for what comes next.
