This episode, to amplify the Digital Doers Academy from Manaaki, may have hit a few snags, but Wilfred Te Wao carried the mahi for his new Digital Doer whanau and bravely shared his personal journey, of challenges overcome, and hope ahead, with heart and inspiration.
What is a Digital Doer? Someone who has specifically trained to support business in Aotearoa to do business online and do it well. They help to overcome the key problem many small and medium businesses have of minimal resources or skills to make this happen. This is where Manaaki stepped in.
I’m excited to report that since this recording Wil is involved in 3 internships, the first is with Sanctuary Mountain Maungatautari, next is Lake District Adventures Waikato, and last but not least AkoMai Way. The links for those businesses can be found below.
Wil is also currently sourcing local clothing manufacturers for the Urban Māori Clothing Line he has started with his brother, and is working on a VR (Virtual Reality) Art gallery space so visitors can visit online art galleries in a digital, interactive environment and purchase artwork.
There is an additional close tie with this organisation. Rachel Adams, who leads this program, and is now the General Manager of Manaaki, featured in episode 13 when she was Head of Operations for Soda Inc. It’s whanau all round!
In this episode we dig into
...and much more!
I hope you find this korero insightful and empowering, thank you and a warm welcome Wil, to the Rosey on Recruitment & Career podcast!
