What if business can, at its core, be philanthropic? What if everything a business does is entirely derived from the motivation to do good?"We separate this idea of business and doing good in the world as two things that cannot be compatible with each other, but I think ... they can both exist. They should both exist together. You don't have to separate them. You shouldn't separate them. You can think about them as one. "That’s Jesse Grothaus, an Army Veteran and the founder and CEO of Cloud Pathfinder Consulting.Jesse has spent the last three years building a company that brings to life the idea that doing business and doing good do not — and should not — exist apart from one another. As he’s built his business, he has found that his philanthropic mission has helped guide him through many of the problems entrepreneurs typically face — from hiring, to retention, to securing the next contract.--Learn more about The Journey at mission.org/thejourney.The Journey is sponsored by our friends at Salesforce Essentials.

Impact-Driven Business with Jesse Grothaus, CEO of Cloud Pathfinder Consulting

Today I had an opportunity to interview Jesse Grothaus, the Dreamforce 2018 Veteran Entrepreneur of the Year. Jesse is the Founder and CEO of Cloud Pathfinder Consulting, a Salesforce consultancy dedicated to hiring veterans to solve clients’ problems within their software and database infrastructure. He is also a graduate of the Vetforce program, a free self-paced learning environment designed to give veterans job skills and certifications to begin a career within the Salesforce ecosystem. In today’s episode, we discuss how his seven years in the Army Reserves gave him the necessary listening, consulting, and analytical skills to run his current company and how a traumatic brain injury from a major car accident led him down the path of self-paced online Salesforce training to develop his career but also as a unique and creative way to follow his doctors’ orders to reprogram his brain and learn new things during the recovery process. Jesse is passionate about Salesforce as well as being the bridge between the military and the technology industry, helping both direct vets to this free training as well as employ graduates of the program that are ready to embark on their first projects within the Salesforce ecosystem. Near the end of the conversation, we talk about his plans to engage with the Veteran’s Administration to help upgrade and enhance their systems, bringing in veterans with Salesforce training to improve the healthcare picture for the patients that rely on the VA.
