In this episode Steven talks with Joe Hanita who was until recently associate director on Wakatū Incorporation's board (now in a senior leadership role) and also sits on a number of audit and risk committees of Māori entities.
Joe explores his long-term, intergenerational perspective on governance, rooted in te ao Māori. He says that good directors are open to learning from others and there needs to be a commitment to lifelong learning in the governance community. Organisations also need to have a greater understanding of why they exist and they need to have long term value creation as a goal - not at the expense of the environment but with greater acknowledgement of our interdependency with it. To achieve this, we need to be our authentic selves and become courageous leaders.
Joe Hanita is a Member of the Institute of Directors.
