This ideology is personified in Scott Lee’s story.
While still in high school in South Korea, Scott established his first business, Peertutor. Since then, he’s returned to the Korean army, started an online apparel shop, worked for JPMorgan, and served as an Olympic advisor in Pyeongchang in 2018.
After everything, he’s returned to his roots in education to start GooRoo and provide low-cost education to those who need it —and he can use his global expertise to better guide his business decisions.
GooRoo is an online platform for locating instructors for a wide range of subjects, including basic reading and writing skills, SAT prep, college entrance essays, and more. GooRoo has over 1,000 teachers and has conducted over 3,500 lessons. And the numbers continue to rise.
Accumulating and drawing upon a wide range of experiences; whether your own or those of your management team and expert advisors; can help you optimise your business.
All of Lee’s experiences, he believes, helped him become a better CEO when he returned to what he knew he wanted to accomplish in high school.
Of course, you don’t have to abandon ship and return to the roost, but you should make an effort to include out-of-the-box events in order to think outside the box.
To show our respect to Lees’ motivational story, we bring you his top quotes surrounding success and inspiration in business.
“I love working with brilliant people and creating something out of nothing.”
“Innovate beyond perceived limits.”
“At the grocery store, labels are a good thing…Humans, however, are not so easily reduced to a few descriptors.”
“We are defined by the strength of our ideas and the quality of our execution.”
“When tutoring is done right, it allows students the opportunity for self-growth, confidence, and determination!
