In this episode Steven Moe talks with Rachel Afeaki-Taumoepeau CMInstD about the "relative pace of Governance."
Rachel is chair of the Tonga Business Council and her governance roles include sitting on the board of Ember Wellbeing Trust and the advisory board of the Auckland Council Waterfront TAG Place Committee.
Rachel understands the challenges of developing in governance, based on 20 years as a “Pasifika” presence at the board table.
“I did become that one woman at the table, and the table was men who were all pakeha. I became the youngest person at the table, the young female.”
It is important to keep that young and open mindset as you gain experience in order to govern well in fast-changing times, rather than become set in your thinking, she says.
Rachel Afeaki-Taumoepeau is a Chartered Member of the Institute of Directors.
