    Ella Henry, an Indigenous Māori woman from Aotearoa New Zealand and Professor of Entrepreneurship in the Business School at Auckland University of Technology, will share the cultural values and practices that underpin Māori society and which provide a spiritual foundation for the renaissance of Māori culture and language over the last fifty years.

    This session is one of a series of quarterly gatherings sponsored by the MSR Division focused on bringing together awareness practice and scholarship in our lives. In each session, the presenter shares a selected practice from their own cultural and spiritual tradition from around the world. Attendees learn about the practice, experience that practice, and then reflect together regarding how personal experiences of this and other spiritual practices support them in their scholarship and action.

    There are no prerequisites or expectations as to previous experience or knowledge. All are invited to taste these practices and dialogue together!
