Welcome to Episode 32 of Products of the Mind. On thisepisode, I speak with entrepreneurial business strategist andfull-time dad, Joon Han.

“Social entrepreneurs are going to love this bookbecause it’s right up their alley; but, there are five differentbusiness models to use generosity, and social entrepreneurship isjust one of them.”

Do you struggle with the 9 to 5? Is “working for the man” notyour thing? Do you feel the entrepreneurial spirit within, butremain unsure as to how to harness that energy?

Today we listen to Joon Han, a process-oriented entrepreneur whostruggled with the same questions before finding hisentrepreneurial niche. We’ll learn about Joon’s struggles in thenon-profit world, trying to have meaningful employment whileraising a family; and how that experience helped push him towardshis entrepreneurial self.

Joon discusses meaningful work and his secret to figuring outwhat kind of work someone can enjoy and be successful at. As aprocess-oriented person, Joon first devised a process to figure outhis own goals and talents before using that process to develop asimilar process for small businesses (go figure.) If you’ve everconsidered locking yourself up in a room until you come up with aplan, Joon has some insights on that as well.

Also on this episode: crappy bosses; being a full-time Dad;giving as generosity; leveraging the power of LinkedIn; and doing ayear’s worth of work in one day.
