More about Kristjan Vanaselja

I am passionate about people and the way they work and balance their lives. Ideas and solutions, that make balancing life and work easier and change the ways of working get me fired up. Creating new ideas and innovating to change the world make me just insane.

I am kind of a rebel - do not tend to stay in university for a long time and do not care too much about the "academic" education. I rather prefer to grow and learn while doing and trying things out. 

Within the past seven year in Manpower, I have gained experience about the HR industry; about it's challenges in the changing world and how important it is to continue innovating and looking for new solutions.

GoWorkaBit is going to change the way people work. We liberate the way of working, by giving people freedom to choose when, where and for whom they work by connecting them with companies who have an urgent need for extra staff.

A team of 6 professionals with remarkable experience from HR and tech, have been passionately building and developing a product that will provide people a freedom. Work will no longer be an unpleasant obligation or a long term commitment but a possibility to choose when, where and for whom you work.

We are planning to grow and scale. If you share the passion for people and would like to liberate the way of working or make an investment to support it, contact me or check us out www.goworkabit.com

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

“I have no hesitation in saying that my association with eChai has been a gateway into the startup ecosystem. Through this platform, I’ve had the opportunity to connect with many young and dynamic entrepreneurs. These interactions have been immensely enriching - I’ve learned a great deal and have always tried to offer guidance whenever approached. It’s a truly symbiotic relationship that I deeply value, and it wouldn’t have been possible without eChai.”

"eChai has played a truly pivotal role in HummingBird’s journey — even before Day Zero. From ideation to establishment and into growth, it’s been a constant source of support. It connected me with incredible people who’ve become more than just friends. One of the biggest reasons I chose to stay in Ahmedabad is because of the eChai community. It has shaped my growth — both personally and professionally — in ways that are hard to articulate. Honestly, words fall short when I try to express what eChai means to me. I’m deeply thankful and forever grateful to eChai for being such an integral part of my journey."
