With less than 2 per cent of the total M?ori population holding a doctorate, the need for M?ori leadership planning in academia has never been greater. The purpose of this book is to present the experiences of new and emerging M?ori academics as a guide for others aspiring to follow.

In 2010 Professor Sir Mason Durie oversaw the creation of the Te Manu Ao Academy at Massey University, designed to advance M?ori academic leadership. In partnership with Ng? Pae o te M?ramatanga, the course looked to develop participants' thinking around effective leadership principles, values and ideas.

This book grew from that programme, in response to the need to create the space for new and emerging M?ori academic leaders to speak openly about what leadership means both personally and professionally.
