Let's start with a reality check. Job security doesn’t exist any longer—or so we are led to believe. Looking at the data certainly reinforces this belief: Some of the biggest most valuable and richest companies in the history of the world are laying off tens of thousands of talented people; 300,000 in 2023 alone, with the trend continuing through 2024, and a prediction of over half a million losing their jobs in 2025, again from some of the top tech companies in the world. There are similar trends in retail construction, marketing, HR... the list goes on, and with the looming threat of AI taking more and more of our jobs and the predicted impending recession then this is only going to get worse.

As an Agile coach, facilitator or scrum master you'd have been watching salaries drop and jobs disappearing over the past year or two. Unemployment is now rife in our communities, with little promise of improvement any time soon.

Depressing, isn't it? But perhaps not. While we rely on other people to give us job security we continue to be trapped by decisions outside our control. The secret is to create your own job security, and elegantly escape the trend. Enter Solopreneurship. This odd, hybrid term was coined around 2010, but people have been solo entrepreneurs long before it was fashionable. I am one of them. I have been engaged in my solo teaching, training and coaching business since 2005. I choose my clients, set my own rates, take breaks when I choose, have never employed anyone else so have no overheads—and no headaches! It isn’t always easy, and it involves risk, but the freedom and rewards more than compensate—and honestly, what is life without some risk?

I am partnering with my good friend, mentor and colleague Moe Choice, who discovered the simple joy of solopreneurship in 2020—after two decades of founding and running various startups—and has never looked back. More than that, the joy he feels in his work is a joy he is now spreading. Moe's simple idea is to help you identify what you are skilled at, blend it with what you love to do, then discover and target those who will benefit most from the products and services you offer. In doing so you will create your own independence and your own freedom, your own dream lifestyle, doing what you want when you want from wherever you want to be in the world, working with the people you most want to be with. Job security has never been so exciting, so fulfilling. You may not get a gold watch on retirement, but you also will not get the chains!

In this masterclass Moe will outline his framework for solopreneurship, using storytelling, personal reflection, and case-studies of his clients who use the framework successfully, regularly hitting $15,000 a month in recurring revenue. There will be time for questions during the last half-hour, for those who'd like to learn more, and get into action.
