About Us
He aha te mea nui o te ao? He tāngata, he tāngata, he tāngata.
What is the most important thing in the world?
It is people, it is people, it is people.
Our Kaupapa
- The Pounamu manawa (greenstone heart) is at the centre of our framework and acknowledges the inherent beauty, mana and potential of our natural resources.
- As pounamu is crafted (shaped, carved, polished), it transforms into an even more prized taonga (gift).
- When we work with clients, it is our belief that they too can discover the taonga that is within them, to recognise and fully develop their potential.
Our Values
Our framework illustrates the values that we embed into our practice.
At the heart is the central tenet of Ako the respectful and mana enhancing flow between an explorer and a guide in which both parties are enriched in mutual and unbounded sensemaking and discovery.
Upholding the matapono -principles the following pillars guide and ground our practice to relevant frameworks, contexts and communities to bring about successful outcomes for individual and organisations.
- Whanaungatanga: interconnected relationships;
- Koha: the reciprocal act of gifting and receiving what is needed;
- Āhurutanga: physical, emotional and spiritual safety;
- Mauri ora: holistic wellbeing
Whakamana
