Welcome to NZLI

Leadership is such a broad, complex and contested topic, and it often holds different meaning for different people. This is part of its charm. NZLI is a unique place where leadership research and development co-exist. We are passionate about growing our understanding of leadership and we want to share this understanding with others.
