Kōraki Co-Lab

Tomorrow’s success started 10 years ago

A collaboration of professionals with a shared philosophical approach working with organisations to improve end to end project governance and build self-sustaining communities of practice.

Our Approach

Combining multiple disciplines within a cohesive collaboration we bring our distinct approaches together, balancing the benefits of being an outsider with an embedded approach that transfers our skills within your organisation.

We turn linear relationships into networks by building capacity and strengthening relationships.

We work within projects to clarify goals and outcomes, strengthen governance, improve communication, and create momentum to deliver on the vision.

We hold space:

  • for silence and complexity

  • for the past to be seen, discussed and acknowledged

  • for the synergies between things to show and take form

  • for components to adapt to their place in the system

  • for preparing today’s ground for tomorrow’s success

How does the way we do things bring about success that lasts?

Whole-of-organisation perspective - we consider how projects impact governance, staff capacity, finances and community relationships. We align our expertise with yours to provide support where it adds the most value.

Iterative, adaptive practice - we work with a staged, co-design approach that enables organisations to learn, adjust and strengthen delivery over time. We assist in developing a plan and methodology that suits where you are now, and where you want to be in the future. We provide honest evaluation on the time things really take and provide a road map to help guide expectations.

Culturally informed and respectful - we work in ways that recognise layered governance, community accountability and collective decision-making – aiming to strengthen governance and community alignment.

Capacity building at every stage - we build skills and confidence through each stage of works that remain within the organisation. We help put the right resources and funding structures in place to reflect who and where you’re at as an organisation.

Consistent, senior-level support - clients receive direct, continuous support from experienced practitioners through all project phases - helping to navigate change, complexity and competing priorities.
