Creating a startup is always challenging. Founding one during a tech downturn, cost of living crisis and recession seems near impossible. However, with risk comes reward and many of the world’s most successful companies were founded during times of economic uncertainty. As part of a series with Antler, Maddyness has interviewed founders hoping to become the entrepreneurial success stories to emerge from this time of crisis. This week, Maddyness spoke to Dave Owen, cofounder of ditto.

Do you love what you do? Have you ever thought about doing something else entirely?

Creating a healthy workplace is a must if you want to retain top talent and build a small business that grows year after year. Employees are more satisfied in a healthy workplace. They’re also more productive and fully engaged in their roles and, as such, your customer support, operational workflow, and overall results improve because of it.

As the adage goes, sometimes it’s who you know and not what you know that matters. And we’re not just talking about nepo babies here, aka the offspring of successful people who are able to piggyback off the professional merits of their parents. As a result they are often given career-defining opportunities without possessing the qualifications or experience required to do the job.

You managed to make it through multiple interview rounds, successfully negotiated your salary, have signed on the dotted line and yet somehow, you hate your new job and don’t know what to do. For starters, take comfort in the fact that regretting your decision isn’t a reflection on your professionalism or commitment issues (or lack thereof).
