How to Make a Few Billion Dollars (Part 2) | Brad Jacobs

"When I hire key people, I’m trying to achieve a two-part goal: accomplish big things and have fun doing it. There’s nothing contradictory about this when you have the right people in place — and if you can do it at scale, you’ll have an organization that can pursue big goals." – Brad Jacobs

Building a billion-dollar business starts with hiring the right people—intelligent, ambitious, honest, and collaborative individuals who drive results. Jacobs breaks down how to identify A-players, create high-impact teams, and build a culture that balances execution, innovation, and psychological safety. He also shares strategies for running electric meetings, outpacing the competition, and ensuring long-term success through clarity, trust, and relentless action. Whether you’re leading a startup or scaling an empire, these principles will help you operate at the highest level.
