Leaders & innovators -                   CONNECTING YOUR WHO TO YOUR DO

How do we navigate leadership integrity & ambition healthily?

Are you leading and innovating in business, community, locally or regionally?   Are you a leader  or innovator loving your role with the driving ambitions to achieve and succeed, but ‘struggle with the juggle’ of your responsibilities and how these mesh with the rest of your world?

How do you manage key relationships, time, money, priorities, family and your ambition with integrity?

Spend time discovering the following 3 pathways that can pull on and then compromise your integrity, draining leadership and innovation;

·      Desire

·      Distortion

·      Doing

    Then let’s build on your current integrity platform as we connect your ‘who to your do’

Everything in your external world flows out of your internal capacity – connecting your who (internal) with your do (external) is the key to healthy ambitious leadership and innovation.

The goal as an ambitious leader or innovator is to strengthen your integrity so that it flows out of who you are, to protect what you do!

               COMMUNITY PROJECTS -              Identifying needs & Connecting Resources

The past 5 years have added a new depth to Nikki’s professional and community scope.  It began  with Nikki founding a Poppycock Trust, a charitable trust, being on the Board of Governance and being the driving force on the ground for securing hundreds of thousands of dollars for funding during this time for multiple community projects delivered by Poppycock.

Nikki has a foresight in identifying needs in the community for tamariki, parents or professionals and then making connections to resource those needs. Past needs Nikki has identified and resourced in community development are;

• A 2 year regional Cyber Safety project to 25,000 total participants - tamariki, parents  and        professionals
• Growing Dyslexia Support Southland (DSS) to being a funded 2 year service delivery with multiple volunteers and a team of 3 part time staff, then transitioning the Dyslexia service  to being an  autonomous service by the end of 2017.
• Identifying a need in the Education sector for Trauma Education and liaising the adaptation of cutting edge Trauma Education from the Social Service sector to the Education sector for Professionals, in partnership with Andrea Greer, Nurturing Relationships workshops.
• Developing organisational policies for  Not-for-Profit’s with interagency and child protection focus

Nikki has a unique ability to see connections that add relevance and inspiration to work and life that engage parties to understand the importance of ‘energy management’ for sustaining their purpose and passion. Her past work and recent contract work on community projects in Christchurch and Invercargill have allowed this identifying and resourcing ability to grow community development projects from grassroots to governance.
