Lachie Smart is a world‑record pilot and award‑winning adventurer who became the youngest person to fly solo around the world at 18 — a feat that earned him two keys to the city (though he’s still unsure what they unlock). Drawing on over a decade of executive leadership in the MedTech sector, he has guided organisations through significant disruption, including the COVID‑19 pandemic, and is now embarking on a new chapter as COO of The End Game. Passionate about bridging the generational gap in leadership, Lachie helps organisations develop and retain exceptional talent. Working with clients including McDonald’s, Colgate-Palmolive, Salesforce, and QBE, he fosters collaboration between emerging talent and seasoned professionals - showing that even the boldest goals can be achieved without cheesy clichés or trust falls.
