Introducing Jade Tang-Taylor
This kōrero with Jade asks how do we care for ourselves when we care for our work?
Working to change systems and organisations is tough work. It's never complete. Your efforts often pass by with no thanks. (And often you bear the brunt of people's negative emotions.)
We also talk about how our culture and heritage can profoundly affect our work. Our history shapes our future - whether we're aware of it or not.

Introducing Judy Zhang
How can we put relationships, learning and a systems-view at the centre of our work?
This question is what guides my kōrero with Construction Accord Director, Judy Zhang.
The Construction Accord is a shared commitment between government and industry to transform the construction sector. In 2022, the government set out a three-year action plan to tackle the sector's systemic challenges and build resilience across the industry.
With the temptation to sweep failures under the rug when working in the public sector, Judy shares how transformative it can be when we put learning at the heart of our work.
In today's episode you'll learn:
What happens when you put relationships and learning at the center of systems change. Why evaluation needs to be everybody's job (not just the data people's) How to shift from KPIs (focused on proving your progress) to meaningful measures (focused on learning).Resources mentioned in this episode:

Introducing Vanessa Sidney-Richmond and Sarah Morris
Today's episode was sparked by the recent release of a report called Make the Move: Shifting How the Public Sector Works with Communities.
I don't know about you, but that's a topic I can get in behind.
In today's episode, I talk to Vanessa Sidney-Richmond, Pou Whirinaki of Te Tihi o Ruahine Whānau Ora Alliance, and Sarah Morris, Freelance Social and Systems Change Consultant and author of the report (commissioned by Inspiring Communities).
In our kōrero, the overarching theme is around the question; how can we shift the way the public sector works with communities? How can we broaden government's role so it's about creating the conditions for change, alongside creating solutions themselves?
We cover a few key topics in today's episode, and that's what I love about these interviews! A complete collaboration and sharing of ideas and opinions.
So please, enjoy this impactful kōrero with Vanessa and Sarah, and make sure to check out the report. Don't just listen to this episode... share it with your team and use the report to inspire some deep learning, reflection and action.
In today's episode you'll learn:
What 'locally led, regionally supported and nationally enabled' really means and how this approach can positively impact communities. What do we mean by 'creating the conditions for change'? (And why is that shift so important?) How can we rebalance the relationship between government and community, bit by bit?Resources mentioned in this episode:

Introducing Mele Wendt
Most of us have heard about IQ (your intellectual quotient), and some of us have heard about EQ (your emotional quotient). But what do you know about your CQ - your cultural quotient?
In a world of diverse ethnicities and cultures, it's time to grow your cultural awareness.
In today's episode, Mele Wendt graciously gives us some tough love and unpacks some Pasifika concepts of governance and collaboration. Her whakapapa roots back to Samoa, and so her perspective comes through a Samoan lens.
Mele shares with us how the Samoan governance system is so different, yet so similar to Western governance systems.
And she challenges us to stop lumping "the Pasifika community" together as one, and instead get out there and learn about the rich cultural diversity and needs of Pasifika communities before we engage.
In today's episode you'll learn:
What is CQ and how can you grow yours How Samoan governance is similar to Western governance (and how you can embrace that when working with Pasifika peoples) Some hard-hitting practical tips for engaging with Pasifika communities.Resources mentioned in this episode:

Introducing Dr Emily Beausoleil
In today’s episode, Dr Emily Beausoleil asks a fundamental question:
How do we make it easier for people in advantaged positions to listen effectively?
Because let's face it. In today's society, listening is the poor cousin to talking. We face immense challenges in building the capacity for better listening in our institutions, our online spaces and our everyday interactions.
Emily's work explores the conditions, challenges, and possibilities of democratic engagement in diverse societies.
Born and raised in Canada, Emily is aware of her own privilege and curious about her place in Aotearoa New Zealand.
In this epsiode, we explore listening in Aotearoa's context - how can we learn from, and listen to, our tangata, our people, when engaging with different organisations? How can we make sure we have an awareness of their history, culture, structure and location - all in hopes of deeper understanding?
In today's episode you'll learn:
What research tells us about how to enable (or disable) good listening How can we listen more intentionally, in hopes of gaining a deeper understanding. How to navigate your own privilege (or challenge) in different contexts.Resources mentioned in this episode:

The hidden influence of collective trauma
Permacrisis has been named the 'word of the year for 2022' by Collins Dictionary.
Are your surprised? It's been a time of crisis after crisis, each one piling in after the last.
Floods. Mass shootings. Earthquakes. Political upheavals. Pandemics. Cost of living pressures.
These events show up in our lives and create pain - so-called 'collective trauma'.
If we're lucky, the pain is short-lived and we move on.
But often the trauma lives on in us. Unprocessed and unresolved. It continues to influence us as individuals and as a society long after the news cycle has moved on.
Introducing Louise Marra
On today’s podcast, we dive into the topic of collective trauma with guest Louise Marra.
If you're skeptical about the relevance of trauma to your work, that's normal.
But Louise encourages us to create space for healing our collective trauma no matter what work you're involved in. And she shares some simple tips for giving this a go in a way that won't make people run for the hills.
If deeper and more meaningful work through harnessing the hidden power of healing our collective trauma lights your fire, buckle in for this kōrero with Louise. The opportunities for healing are all around us.
Content warning - we talk about death in this episode
This episode includes a discussion about death. We put an optimistic and empowering lens on its role in our work lives. But if that's not something you feel like jumping into today, this might not be the episode for you.

Introducing Aimee Gasparetto and Tammy Mudge
The future work-scape is collaborative, sustainable, humanitarian, and local. Are you ready to participate in this new economy?
For Every One, Every Day - an organisation in Halifax, Canada - the participatory cities approach feels like second nature. Nurturing community, particularly in respect of Halifax's prominent Indigenous people, is what Aimee and Tammy strive for in their work every day.

In Ep 55 we discussed the participatory cities approach and how it has the potential to positively impact communities.
Today, in Ep 57, we cast our mind back to participatory cities, to hear about this approach in a practical, everyday sense and what it really looks like when introduced to Indigenous communities.
Again, Hamish Lindop also joins us to ask some curious questions and share his thoughts.

Climate change, political upheaval, inequality, global pandemics, the list goes on... How do we come together as people, as humanity, to find ways through this man-made maze?

Our guest today, Lil Anderson, is the Chief Executive of this amazing organisation and she shares her unique view and approach to building true partnership between Māori and the Crown.
Having been thrown into the deep end by Dame Whina Cooper when she was just seven years old, Lil has carried the same purpose and spirit with her through all her years of public service - to speak up and be bolder.
If you’d love to feel more empowered in your place as either Māori or Pākehā, and feel more equipped to ‘cross the bridge’ and find a way to work in true partnership, this episode is essential listening.
In today’s episode you’ll learn: Why Pākehā need to spend more time crossing the bridge into te ao Māori to grow true partnership The importance of listening (and that your first move shouldn’t be to research data but to talk to people) What does good partnership look like? What are the features of it and how do you achieve it?

Introducing Anjum Rahman
How can we create a country where everybody feels like they belong?
It's a powerful question and not one that can be answered in a simple sentence, but it’s the very question that’s at the heart of today's episode.
Anjum Rahman is the founder and project co-lead of the Inclusive Aotearoa Collective Tāhono. She started up this amazing organisation following the Christchurch mosque attacks, and here we delve deeper into that origin story.
We also talk about Inclusive Aotearoa’s approach to enabling change, called the constellations approach, and how you can host an effective conversation about something that’s deeply personal.
This conversation will leave you thinking differently about how we can create a country where everybody belongs - and how your own place in your own community can contribute to that.
