Team Culture

Our social footprint is the impact our life has - or can have - on other lives. It begins with character - a deep respect for our deepest values - and it involves a committed enquiry into our life’s purpose. What do we hold most sacred? Whats our purpose here? What can we pass on, teach? Whats our place in the whakapapa?
— Legend - James Kerr
