How to CEO, Fishburners transforms, finding staff like investors
from Startup 360 · host Startup Daily
When do you know you’re CEO material? It’s the question Startup 360 host Simon Thomsen put to Majella Campbell, the newly appointed CEO of Fishburners, Australia’s pioneering startup coworking space. Majella talked about her mentor, Myles Baron-Hay, the former Sydney Swans CEO, saying “why not?” when she had her doubts. "When I was unsure about taking on this role, he simply asked, ‘Why not?’,” she said. “That moment shifted my perspective. A great mentor pushes you beyond your limits and helps you see opportunities where you only see obstacles." She also revealed that she’s working on transforming Fishburners, which turns 15 next year, as the NSW government prepares to relocate the Sydney Startup Hub to Tech Central. We also spoke to Zable Health cofounder Matt Gregory about his journey from real estate startup founder with Hey Agent, to healthcare Zable Health, which he cofounded in 2020 with his best mate, physiotherapist Scott Gentle. Zable makes private healthcare simpler, faster and more accessible, giving patients the information they need and connecting them with the specialists that can help While the duo are really competitive at the ping pong table and playing cricket, they complement each other in the business. Startup 360 cohost Kayla Medica wanted to know about the biggest problem Zable faces getting an analogue health system onto a digital platform. Matt talks about how to be pragmatic and take a bottom-up approach to that transformation to succeed. He also gave some great advice on hiring - treat your potential employees like investors. “The investor's putting in their cash, but the person working inside the business is providing their time,” Matt said.
