In this video, I reveal the 5 critical CEO secrets I wish someone had told me before I built Wayleadr into a global company serving major clients like OpenAI and Uber. After years of hard lessons and mistakes, I'm sharing the exact systems that transformed my business.

These aren't theoretical concepts – they're battle-tested strategies I use daily to manage teams across multiple time zones from New Zealand to the United States.

You'll discover:
– The 3P System (People, Product, Pennies) that creates unstoppable business growth
– Why your intuition during hiring matters more than you think (the mistake that cost me dearly)
– The crucial difference between advisors and mentors (and when to leverage each)
– Why market size decisions determine your success ceiling from day one
– Time management frameworks including the Eisenhower Matrix and the Friday at Five hack I borrowed from Elon Musk

Whether you're a startup founder, small business owner, or aspiring entrepreneur, these proven CEO secrets will help you scale faster while avoiding the painful lessons I had to learn through trial and error.

I started Krüst as a food business when I was 23 years old, it grew to become a multi-million business over the next 5 years, employing hundreds of people as we grew to become Ireland's largest supplier of donuts, selling to National retailers, before I sold my stake in 2018 to focus on growing my new technology company Parkpnp "the Airbnb for parking spaces" and later Wayleadr, the "World's first parking software for offices", with some of the leading Fortune 500 companies such as Colliers, Indeed and Netflix as happy clients. Innovation is key."

I have personally hired hundreds of employees for my businesses and get asked questions constantly on this topic by aspiring entrepreneurs, hence the video today which I hope has provided you with some of the basic tips to hiring. I will be covering many of the topics discussed on how to hire in more detail in later videos.

This video along with the others I am doing right now are part of the beginners guide to starting a business playlist on my channel. Over the last few months I have been helping many different aspiring entrepreneurs during my innovation Saturday sessions where I jump on a call for 15-30 minutes each Saturday with as many entrepreneurs as possible. Many of the questions I get asked about startups are similar so therefore I thought it would be better and more scalable to put the answers here on youtube to help as many aspiring entrepreneurs as possible in one go. If you liked the content, I would appreciate if you could like and subscribe to help the youtube algorithm to pick this channel up. I look forward to hearing about you and your entrepreneurial journey in the comments section and if you have any suggestions on topics for me to cover please feel free to share them.
