Daring our own. Growing our own. Backing our own.
Tū Māia designs and delivers programmes, experiences and opportunities that inspire, challenge and grow our people. We specialise in leadership, innovation and venture development of all kinds: for profit, social enterprise and kaupapa driven. Our aim is to transform our communities by growing talent at multiple levels so that our communities are not reliant on the ‘vital few’ but have a growing pool of ‘committed many’. The kaupapa that we immerse ourselves in are personal. We firmly believe that no one else has an obligation to grow our people but ourselves. This is a fundamental issue that matters most to our collective future.
