Founder: Flight Group. Thirdweb, The Diary Of A CEO.
The best thing you can do for your business is build the strongest team possible. If your team is small, it's crucial to hire people correctly and instil the company culture in them early. Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt emphasises the importance of hiring 'divas'—people who will embody your company culture and aren't afraid to challenge and push you. For example, if you have a team of five, each person represents 20% of your company culture. This means that just two bad apples can turn almost half of your culture toxic. Ensuring that your initial hires truly embody your values is key because that's the culture you will scale. The way your small team operates will define how your larger team operates as you grow.
