Listen: The Ground Breaking Podcast's Eli Smit interviews Pat Macfie

By Idealog, 16 Jul 2019

It’s not often you stumble across a ten-year-old New Zealander hosting a business podcast, but then again, most nine-year-olds aren’t like self-proclaimed budding entrepreneur Eli Smit. After discovering Smit as our Emerging Talent, we will be hosting season two of Smit's podcast on Idealog. In this episode, Smit chats with the former global director of media at Xero, Pat Macfie. Macfie has built up a reputation of building high performing global creative teams and has partnered with several premium global brands across his career. Here, he talks about his passion for his culture, storytelling and inspiring the next generation.
