Perfection is the Enemy of Progress: Interview with Jason Anderson, President of CoWorks

February 2, 2023

I recently went one on one with Jason Anderson, President of CoWorks.

Adam: Thanks again for taking the time to share your advice. First things first, though, I am sure readers would love to learn more about you. How did you get here? What experiences, failures, setbacks, or challenges have been most instrumental to your growth?

Jason: There have been several formative experiences throughout my life that led me to where I am today. I joined the Air Force in the summer of 2000 at the age of 17, just 30 days out of high school. By 18, I landed at my first duty station in England. I anticipated a lifetime military career but five months after arriving at my station, the planes hit the Twin Towers on 9/11. I was deployed less than a week later and had to grow up quick. That experience changed my life plans – I decided to leave the military and was honorably discharged in 2005.
