Māori succeeding as Māori

Māori are projected to make up a larger share of the workforce, particularly the young workforce, over the next decade. It’s a future in which both Māori kaimahi and pākihi should thrive and support increasing productivity.  

Māori represent one of the fastest growing demographics in New Zealand, and employers stand to benefit greatly by supporting the success of Māori in their workplace. These resources grouped here will assist employers to support rangatahi Māori in particular, as well as promote existing pākihi Māori success.  

Incorporating Māori values and tikanga

Common questions employers might consider are:

1. How can my business incorporate Māori values and tikanga into what we offer and how we operate?
2. How can we make sure our business respects the environment and Māori traditions, like taking care of the land and resources?
3. How can my business create opportunities for Māori kaimahi to grow and succeed, while acknowledging tikanga and personal development?
4. How can we make sure we follow Maōri tikanga and practices when working with Māori customers and partners?
5. How can we contribute to keeping Te Reo Māori and traditions alive in our community?
