One Day I'll Work for Myself

CFO Bookshelf

About this episode

If you work for yourself or would like to, have you ever thought about whose shoulders you are standing on, especially if you decide to have no employees?

Ben Waterhouse is a professor and faculty director at the University of North Carolina. His research interests include deciphering how self-employment became a key to personal fulfillment, a central topic in his newest book, One Day I'll Work for Myself.

In this conversation, we explore some of history's most pivotal stories that led to the plateau of big business starting in the late 1800s and reaching its peak in the 1970s. We learn why the move to self-employment became a potential remedy to professional and personal relevance in Ben's engaging style.
