E10: Lisa Tai: Associate Director - Deloitte NZ (Rotuma/Fiji)

Andrew Fa'avale Season 1 Episode 10


Noa'ia! Our first Rotuman guest Lisa was born in Fiji and her parents moved her and her siblings to NZ around the time of the 1987 coup. The coup was an volatile and unpredictable time for many in Fiji, and with the help of a generous Kiwi couple, the family relocated to NZ where her dad would work as a mechanic out in West Auckland! 

Lisa has worked her way up the chain at Deloitte and is now Associate Director where she is splitting her time between management, strategy and doing the mahi. One of her more recent projects is an in-house Pasifika staff network she is leading named “Pås Peau - Breaking Waves”

Lisa is married to her long-time partner and together they have two children.
