Eugenio Pace, CEO and
Co-Founder of Auth0 adds that
maintaining a global workforce is
a challenge for entrepreneurs.
“To tackle this challenge, at Auth0
we have a remote-friendly work policy
where we do not require our team
to work in an office. Additionally,
to bring our global workforce
together, we hold regular companywide
video meetings once a year.”
To combat business challenges as
a whole, Pace looks to philosophers
and mentors for advice and support.
“This might seem a little off-beat,
but I turn to the lessons of stoic
philosophers like Seneca, Epictetus,
and Marcus Aurelius, whose tenets of
self-control and fortitude have served
great purpose in my life and helped
me through the toughest adversities.
I also seek out advice and support from
mentors who have guided me through
the trials and tribulations of
entrepreneurship by forcing myself –
while sometimes uncomfortable – to
have brutally honest conversations
about concerns I am having. Sometimes,
all you need is an outside perspective
to show you a clear path forward.”
