Fiona McGrath is a dedicated board member whose governance philosophy is deeply rooted in kaupapa Māori. She champions frameworks that authentically measure the value of manaakitanga, whanaungatanga, rangatiratanga, wairuatanga, kotahitanga, and kaitiakitanga to organisational and community wellbeing.

Her PhD in Leadership directly informs her practice, having culminated in Ngā Pou o Rangatira, a distinctive leadership model built on three pillars: Te Pou o Tautoko (support and service), Te Pou o Whakahaere (strategic direction), and Te Pou o Tikanga (cultural integrity). This model ensures her governance is both strategically astute and culturally grounded.

Fiona is a dynamic advocate for leadership that serves, strategies that empower, and practices that honour Te Ao Māori, driving tangible, positive impact for communities.
