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

"eChai isn’t just a startup community … it’s a mindset . eChai has been one of the most impactful communities in my entrepreneurial journey. It’s been a turning point . In a world where building something can often feel isolating, eChai gave me a sense of belonging. I’ve found mentors, collaborators, and friends here — people who genuinely want to see you succeed. It’s a space where ideas are challenged, actions are celebrated, and founders grow not just in scale, but in clarity and confidence. From late-night ideas to early-morning pitches, this community has quietly but powerfully shaped the way I build, think, and dream. I’ll always be grateful for the way eChai creates spaces where founders don’t just grow businesses — they grow together."
