Listen "Episode 42: Being tumuaki Māori"
Episode Synopsis
Kō ngā tahu ā ō tapuwai inanahi, hei tauira mō āpōpō
Leading an organisation as tumuaki Māori has its own unique challenges and opportunities. We often use the whakatauki Poipoia te Kākako kia pūawai to emphasise the importance of nurturing our tamariki,
A pressing issue right now is how we’re nurturing our aspiring and new principals, in particular our young tumuaki Māori. How do we, as experienced and leading principals, curate leadership journeys that empower new and aspiring tumuaki Māori to last the challenges of the current day?
Mārama’s guests are:
Marissa Peters, Principal of Tarawera High School in Kawerau Eastern Bay of Plenty
Mikaere October, Principal of Trident High School, Whakatāne
Leanne Otene, President of New Zealand Principals’ Federation and Principal of 30 years of service this year.

Learning that walking in both the pākeha and Maōri worlds is a strength, not a weakness
The importance of having good role models
The importance of knowing who you are and being authentic in that, of finding your voice and standing up for yourself and for your kura and tamariki
