As part of the Leadership Network's 20th anniversary, we're catching up with some of the original members who joined back in 2006.

Leadership Network member Ayush Sharma reflects on his experience at this year’s Rethinking Leadership Hui, held in Auckland in March. The hui brought together members from across the country to share their personal leadership journeys and explore what it means to be a leader in New Zealand in 2026.
Despite graduating from the Leadership Network in 2020, Dr James To says that once you’re in, you never really leave — and being a member of the network continues to play a significant role in his life. James, who is the Foundation's South Island manager and manages the Track II diplomacy programme, was in attendance 20 years ago for the inaugural Young Leaders Forum, from which the Leadership Network emerged. In this Q&A, we chat to James about his experiences with the network and ask him what makes it such a special group to be part of.
