Tom Finn is the co-Founder and CEO of LeggUP, a professional coaching and preventative mental Health platform. LeggUP integrates world-class coaches and therapists, proprietary science-backed assessments, and ROI dashboards into one easy-to-use platform. Before forming LeggUp, Tom was VP & General Manager of Aetna and Regional Managing Director of Anthem Blue Cross.\n\nThis Episode\u2019s Heavy-hitter\u2019s:\n\n- Tom originally thought that he wanted to be an International Corporate Attorney, but after some time spent in legal internships in London, he decided that the legal system was a bit too repetitive and regimented for his personality.\n- Tom\u2019s first sales role was at his college bar back in Tucson, Arizona! This was much more his speed and a space where he realized how much he loved working directly with people.\n- The focal point for Tom when he\u2019s starting a new position is to pick a solid entry point. If you\u2019re following in Tom Brady\u2019s footsteps for example, those are pretty big shoes to fill. But to find an area where people are struggling and need a change, that\u2019s a much better place to grow from.\n- He realized that he needed a support system outside of his friends and family that wouldn\u2019t get tired of hearing about his job and could provide insight into his work problems. This was the major motivator behind how he built the services at LeggUP.\n- \u201cTwo salespeople should never start a company.\u201d The goal of having a cofounder is to diversify the disciplines of the founding team. What you should have in common is values, which can serve as the glue in the relationship.\n\nFor more, please check out www.leggup.com \n\nIf you enjoyed this episode, please leave a review:\xa0https://ratethispodcast.com/thepozcast\n\n#thePOZcast is brought to you by our friends at Interseller \u2013 the prospecting + outreach platform of recruiters and sellers.
