You need a mindset change going to a start up. If you are asking "what am I getting" vs. "What am I willing to Give", the getting mindset will be a major disappointment.
MedTech startups are a process, not an event, and the payoff...if any...will be years down the road. Personal payoff and the art of giving of you time, thoughts, critical thinking and more is where you will "get" but you won't know it for years.

With all evolutions change is obviously the mental obstacle that needs to be overcome. The way in which MedTech commercializes products via a 30 year old process won't optimize the chances of great products to come to market. It's not 2003.
Tom and I lay out the steps needed to align a company to get ready to de-risk commercialization. If you are looking at a role with a start up or a new product roll out we give more guidance on asking the right questions to understand the culture around commercialization.
It is your career so take it as serious as a heart attack. De-risk your choices by understanding commercialization as an initiative and process versus those that think the product will sell itself.
