Kane Harnett

Kane Harnett-Mutu is a Maori from the Ngati Kahu tribe of Northland, New Zealand.

As an indigenous leader, Kane has been at the forefront of promoting and teaching authentic tribal based personal development for over 30 years. Through empowering an individual’s ability to be more transparent and authentic, Kane creates a pathway that unearths the power of self-belief and shared vision by connecting to tools, ritual and traditions passed down through generations of innovators, visionaries, and warriors.

As a cultural consultant, Kane mentors leaders in some of the largest organizations in the world, connecting his cultural understanding to the likes of Microsoft, BMW Group, Arsenal Football Club, Maersk, Adidas, LEGO, Harvard University and The New Zealand All Blacks.

“In ancient times, Māori warriors focused on their future identities, taking actions to make those visions a reality.  They shared their vision, embracing vulnerable, seeking knowledge and experience. As they grew, they prioritized themselves in periods to grow and become a greater resource to the tribe.  As their vision was realized, they reflected their knowledge and journey sharing it with others who were committed to their own process planting new seeds to secure the wellbeing of the tribe.  To be a true warrior, requires transparency and dedication, not muscles and rage.”

Supporting and encouraging personal development is where Kane’s passion lives and why he pivoted from a successful corporate career as a lawyer and business and management consultant, back into the world of his ancestors, sharing authentic life changing ideas and tools that resonate and inspires ambition, transforms ideologies, and solidifies personal responsibility.
