Check here for a list of frequently asked questions Leadership Network members ask about the network.
While technological change accelerates at extraordinary speed, humanity often appears determined to repeat old mistakes in new forms, writes Leadership Network member Monique van Veen. Monique was one of seven Leadership Network members supported by the Foundation to attend the Asian Leadership Conference in Seoul, South Korea. In this article, she reflects on her key takeaways from the conference and how the experience impacted her understanding of geopolitics and leadership.
As part of the Leadership Network's 20th anniversary, we're catching up with some of the original members who joined back in 2006. This month we connect with Luke Rikiti — a member whose connection with Asia has shaped much of his life and who has been a stalwart of the Leadership Network since the very first hui.
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.
