Purpose and benefits

There are many different reasons for contemplating leaving full time employment and becoming your own boss. These range from being self-employed and continuing to offer your professional expertise to being an entrepreneur and conceiving, forming and running your own business.

Whatever your motivation, you will need to reflect on whether or not you have the skills that will enable you to manage yourself effectively. The advantage of working within an organisation is that it provides you with a career path whilst offering you the structure, systems and resources that facilitate your professional contribution. Also, whilst in the organisational environment, you will get a regular salary along with a range of benefits.
