A word from the CEO

2015 is the year we are embracing fearless leadership!

The 21st century certainly presents us with many new challenges that are complex, difficult to understand or predict, and that require the whole system to learn, respond, adapt. It is in this context that we hear the cry for leadership. Our leadership network is a living ecosystem of diverse, dynamic, disruptive New Zealanders who subscribe to a collective vision to change the leadership culture of New Zealand and are catalysts for positive change that drives our economic, social and cultural future.

We are challenging ourselves to be bold, ambitious, generous, visionary, provocative – fearless! To face the fear and be the change!
