Driving Change through Influence with Afterpay GM North America Zahir Khoja

Episode notes

Afterpay | Zahir Khoja Today, I interview Zahir Khoja , who is the General Manager of North America for Afterpay . Afterpay is among a few major players in the booming "buy now, pay later" financial trend - and its $29 billion acquisition at the hands of Square (now Block) indicates that it's here to stay. Zahir took the role in 2021, a few months before the Block announcement. On today's podcast, we focus on authentic human leadership - specifically, how to drive change through influence rather than force. I find Zahir's perspective incredibly interesting because the only reason we met is because I was brought into the Mastercard (Zahir's previous tenure) family via an acquisition. I experienced what it was like to be acquired from an entry-level perspective - and today we get to learn what it's like for a leader. That, plus we learn a little more about Zahir's role models, what he's learned from them, and the all-too-important definition of authenticity from his POV.
