On 4 July 2022, we released version 4 of Te Kaihautū | New People Leader Development. Unless you are partway through a cohort we suggest you use the latest version, version 4. However, you may want to check with your programme coordinator.

Version 4 includes an additional development and action guide: Te hononga o te Māori me te Karauna | Māori Crown Relationship.

You will need to login to access the guides or you can create an account if you belong to one of our member agencies.
