Hurricane # 27 Filo Tiatia - Lead the Way leadership course
Lead the Way is by far one of the best & relatable courses I’ve been on.
Leadership can be quite complex but the course simplifies & tailors it to your strengths & your areas of work-ons. The facilitators (Sam & Andrew) & staff are 1st class & I definitely encourage you to put your name forward. They create an environment where you will be challenged but also are safe at the same time.
Highly recommend this to all-
Loved the learning & had some great people on the course that were “liked minded” to learn from each other.
#27 Grateful and appreciated for the opportunity gifted by the Hurricanes Alumni & especially my good friend & teammate Mike “Buck” Russell.
Hurricane #152 Faifile Levave - Hurricane for a Day
"Thanks to the Hurricanes Alumni for the opportunity for my little man to be Hurricane for the day.
He had a ball. It was a pretty proud moment for Dad and especially to see him flourish outside of his comfort zone"

Doug Neilson - Hurricanes Analyst - Supporting Hurricanes # 11 Sam Doyle
"Just passing on my regards and heartfelt thanks for the fundraiser held last night for Sam Doyle.
I have had little to do with the Alumni having only played a small role as an analyst. It was really impressive seeing your organisational ability and the Alumni’s facility to do such good for Sam and his family. They will be so grateful for the support, both financial and with the integrity of all that was offered both last night and ongoing I am sure."

4 weeks ago I had the privilege to attend The Leader Within course with lead the way nz which I highly recommended.
This two-day course was fantastic.
Finally massive gratitude and thanks to Mike Russell and Hurricanes Alumni for giving me this opportunity and to other Hurricane Alumni members.

Kia ora Mike & the Hurricanes Alumni
Thank you so much for support. ❤️
We really are so appreciative of your efforts and everyone involved support. It will lighten the financial load of having to pay for the chemo regime Sam is on now and lessens the stress of day to day living. Truly grateful, please pass in our gratitude to everyone.
