KAITOHU WHAKAURU HAPORI | Engagement Advisor
Specialist

I am experienced and enthusiastic, with a passion to drive inclusive and on-going engagement. With my strong focus on people, by enabling communities and stakeholders to work together and through thoughtful planning, I support a positive engagement experience for everyone involved — one that will exceed the project outcomes.

With over twelve years of experience, I have accumulated a wealth of industry knowledge and have worked on several large-scale multi-agency projects.

I am an IAP2 accredited practitioner, which gives me a framework of best-practice principles for meaningful engagement to ensure our clients, their communities and stakeholders are engaged, involved, and understand the key decisions being made and any potential challenges.
