The second session of the NZICC Next Generation Leadership in Asia Pacific focussed on Empathetic Leadership. The meeting was opened by Alana Bicknell with a traditional karakia ( Maori prayer) and moderated by Stephen Noble, Chair of the IAPCO Training Academy. NZ business leader Craig Hudson shared his own mental health journey and the importance of giving people a sense of purpose, vision, leadership and trust. Craig's wisdom, strength and humility will inspire the IAPCO Next Gen to build a culture of wellbeing into their own organisations and to be empathetic AND authentic leaders. Mathias Posch shared tips on building 'Psychological Capacity' to manage tough situations. He also highlighted how culturally, too much emphasis is placed on what is done wrong, rather than positive reinforcement for what is done right. The meeting ended with a fitting whakatauki (proverb) of gratitude. Nga mihi to the team at New Zealand International Convention Centre (NZICC) for curating and supporting this incredibly valuable programme for our Next Gen of leaders in Asia Pacific. #IAPCONextGen
