 Today’s advice comes from Jess Loren, co-founder of digital marketing agency Kambio Group, via her piece in Fast Company: “Young entrepreneurs — myself included — can be seen as having a lack of professional experience; however, many are turning that idea on its head through a combination of hard work, knowledge, and confidence, paired with results.” Loren started and sold her first company before the age of 25. But she says whether it’s your own company or someone else’s, it’s important to present yourself as a leader. People may judge you because of your age, so you should bring your own set of skills to the table. These skills can come from work experiences or non-work experiences. Making yourself a positive presence outside of the workplace will gain you recognition within the company as well. This can include networking, taking public speaking classes, or volunteering. Loren is on the board of Project Impact, a group that provides grants, management support, and networking opportunities to early stage non-profits. When you’re willing to put yourself out there and be seen, people will stop focusing on how old you are. “Build a professional persona that people remember regardless of your age.” Want your business advice featured in Instant MBA?
