Some of my take aways from our learning at Piritahi Marae on Waiheke Island with Jan Robertson,
Morning:
The Waka Ama Metaphor.
Exploration of this metaphor and how it relates to leadership.
- Environment changes - people in the waka need to adapt, as a team, as the external conditions are changeable.
- One person in the waka can upset the rhythm of the waka if they are not contributing fully. Leadership needs awareness of this.
- Have the end goal in mind, you are all working together to achieve the same thing. Everyone in the team needs the same vision.
Maori achieving as Maori:
What does this mean? This is an idea where NZ educators need to look internally and invest in educating themselves. Do we know the iwi of our Maori students? What is their marae?
