Past Event:
Leadership & Gratitude
with Rodney Dow
Our latest Ōtorohanga Business Breakfast was an inspiring start to the day! We were privileged to hear from Rodney Dow, Ōtorohanga Mayor and successful business owner, who shared valuable insights on leadership, teamwork, and the importance of showing gratitude during the busy season.
Rodney reminded us that strong leadership isn’t just about making decisions—it’s about building trust, empowering your team, and appreciating the people who make your business thrive. His practical tips and personal experiences sparked great conversations among attendees.
It was fantastic to see both members and non-members come together to connect, learn, and support local business.
