MĀORI GOVERNANCE PROGRAMME
Elevate the mana and effectiveness of your board through tirohanga Māori frameworks, immersive wānanga, and ongoing support to apply good governance in real time – not just learn about it.
STRATEGY REVIEW
Kaupapa Māori governance reviews that bring clarity, alignment and a shared pathway forward. Bring out your strengths, risks and shared priorities to strengthen governance and enhance your kaupapa.
Turn uncertainty into clarity, and ideas into impact. Align around outcomes that provide clear direction to operations – grounded in karakia rautaki to elevate the mana and tapu of your kaupapa.
GOVERNANCE AROMATAWAI
Te Whare Hukahuka refers to ‘the domain of innovation’, drawing from the traditional pūrakau of Tangaroa birthing the many varied creatures of the sea.
Our work has been acknowledged nationally and internationally for the way we combine innovation principles with practical learning, best practice thinking and indigenous knowledge to create learning experiences that truly make a difference.
Being named in the ‘Forbes Asia 30 Under 30’ list demonstrates that our mahi (work) is recognised globally and is making a difference locally and internationally.
Our Ka Eke Poutama programme was named ‘Community based Programme of the Year’ in 2017, which recognises the impact that it is having on our emerging Māori leaders and their communities.
We don’t work alone. We collaborate with a wide range of community organisations, iwi and agencies to help catalyse solutions to community issues.
Ka Eke Poutama is a four month programme for rangatahi aged 22-38. It prepares our next generation of Māori leaders for governance roles.
