Episode description

This week, Natasha interviewed Roger Lee, an entrepreneur who's spent the better part of a decade building tools for employees and employers alike. Lee is the creator of Layoffs.FYI and co-founder of Comprehensive and Human Interest. Here's what we got into: Roger's introduction to entrepreneurship during the dot-com bubble How the pandemic de-stigmatized layoffs How Comprehensive - described as the inverse of Layoffs.FYI - is helping employees level-up The importance of crowdsourcing and to monetize, or not to monetize...transparency We ended, as usual, with a lightning round and learned where Lee's career could have gone if he didn't take the founder path (hint: it's not VC).
