Description
The final episode of Season Two looks a little different than the others. I sit down with two industry mavericks and thought leaders in community wellbeing and systems change to explore the new paradigm of leadership. If you're passionate about service, impact and contribution, and work in, with or for communities, this episode is going to supercharge your knowledge on leadership for systems change. In this episode we explore: - Systems change and the redistrubtion power  - Inequality and inequity  - What leadership for wellbeing looks like  - Biggest mistakes in leadership for systems change - Trends within systems change, wellbeing in communities and leadership - Navigating privilege and decentering individuals in organising for change One of my favourite quotes from this episode: "we need to move the power and resouce base away from beaurocratic, institutionalised siloed to whaanau and hapouri to control their own destiny" - Pete Tania Han Tania is an extroverted introvert and believer in the power of people. Although she is now an independent strategy and impact consultant, she started her career in banking for over a decade before running away to join the impact, startup and public sectors. As a leader, collaborator and mentor with an insatiable love for learning, deep thinking, getting things done and supporting others, Tania has spent the last few years seeking out and working with people and organisations making the world a better place. She is a parent to a toddler and an ally for climate justice, social equity and dismantling oppression. Peter Butler (Ngāti Tūwharetoa, Ngāti Kauwhata, Mōkai Pātea, Ngāti Paoa, Ngai Tai & Werehi) Of Māori and Welsh ancestry, Peter was brought up in the urban Māori environment of Highbury in Palmerston North, at a time when urban drift was at its peak. His close knit whānau suffered the loss kuia & koroua in the 1970s and ‘80s. This was a time of change and instability and the whānau lost much of its mātauranga of Te Ao Maori. In his adult years, he has striven to regain that knowledge. Peter has been involved within Youth and Community Development for the past twenty-eight years. He is currently the Kaihautū of the Highbury Whānau Centre, a unique organisation born from the desire of urban whānau to support their children. Passionately representing his community, he challenges civic leaders, decision makers, kaimahi and whānau to be creative and committed in the pursuit of equitable opportunities for our youth to develop and grow. He draws from the strength and legacy of his Tīpuna to constantly strive in the face of adversity, and the understanding of the need to ‘adapt or die’. Peter integrates social integrity with business know-how in his mahi. As a social entrepreneur, he promotes sustainability within the field of community development. ------------------------ Let us know what resonated for you in the comments!
