Description:

This week I am speaking with Mike Harris CEO of Patina Solutions and Patina Nation. I was introduced to Patina several years ago as Patina Solutions provides fractional and interim leadership opportunities for the members of the Patina Nation community. Patina Nation is primarily made of executives and managers who have 25 or more years of experience and are looking for gig work.

Below is Mike's bio:

A proven and prolific entrepreneur, Mike has significant experience in starting and building professional and technical services firms. Patina Solutions is his sixth professional services start-up. As a co-founder of Patina Solutions and Patina Nation in 2008, Mike Harris saw the growing talent gap occurring as baby boomers who hold a high percentage of leadership positions and jobs were starting to retire from the workforce. He also saw that professionals with 25 years or more of experience were looking to work differently and he wanted to harness the power of these experts to fill client’s impending resource and skill gaps for projects and interim leadership roles.

This week I am speaking with Dean Wade. Dean is a member of the Career Pivot membership community who is making an interesting pivot by moving into the world of voice-over.

Dean has an extremely eclectic background. She started out as a television journalist, television weatherman, then a stockbroker, then went into pharmaceutical sales, had his own uniform business and several more twists and turns and current does business development for a chain of urgent care clinics. He is in the middle of this pivot but I wanted you to hear his story now and not when it was complete.
