LISTEN now:
Kieran Mathew is the CEO and Founder of Amplify Solutions, a full-service marketing firm in Toronto, Ontario. After spending a summer in a consulting internship, Kieran found himself thinking about helping clients to grow their business within the university market. Kieran saw that business executives valued the opinions of students highly, and began to realize he understands this market better than most of the clients (being a student himself). From there, he began consulting for top Canadian corporations on how to effectively cater and sell to students. Kieran founded Amplify in July 2016.
Kieran has always been a problem solver, with two years’ work experience doing business development and serving as a marketing analyst for start-ups. Kieran has served on the executive teams of several different Western philanthropic organizations and the Huron University College Student’s Council.
Kieran talks with William about:
- How to communicate vision across multiple locations
- Building culture on a team that doesn't work together
- How to interview for a culture fit
- The importance of references in the hiring process
- How to drive culture through an organization from the hire
