In this episode I am joined by Mavis Mullins. Mavis has a long history in agribusiness. She is a mother of four and a grandmother to 14, and she is a fifth generation farmer, as well as alongside her husband Koro and wider whānau running and being actively involved at every level of the family shearing business over the last 30 plus years. In 2002 she was made a New Zealand Order of Merit. She has won the Rural category at the Westpac Women of Influence Awards and has been inducted into the New Zealand Business Hall of Fame.
The list of organisations that she has been involved in at a governance level across our sector is extensive. From Landcorp to the Aohanga Incorporation, Two Degrees Mobile to Rangitahi Tu Mai Ra, Atihau Whanganui Incorporation, Agri Women's Development Trust, Taratahi Learning Institute, the Hawke's Bay Rugby Union, UNICEF Aotearoa New Zealand, the Environmental Protection Agency and Nga Whenua Rahui, just to name a few….and she's not done yet.
This conversation is about connection - connection to land, connection to each other, and breaking down the barriers between people so that we can harness our unique strength as a primary sector nation, our deep cultural heritage. And how we lean into that with authenticity to the opportunities for greater understanding and progress. It's an open and a frank discussion and just the start of a journey.
