Methodology
Trustees serving on multiple iwi boards may indicate deep governance experience and trusted leadership. This page highlights cross-iwi connections without implying overcommitment — iwi governance structures vary significantly from NZX boards. Cross-platform roles are identified through name matching across NZXplorer, CharityData, and PublicData records.
