Ep.75 – Rebuilding Our Workforce

While young entrepreneurs these days might be focused on the next big app or software solution, Israel Whitley has created a success out of old school hard work and human talent with his company, Auckland Labour Hire which supplies contractors to the building and construction industry.

Israel shares his journey so far and why you should never overlook the “unsexy” industries.
