Uiuitanga Ora mō te FESPA 2026: Ka Whakamoemiti a Dave, te Kaituku o Airana, i a IECHO — "Kei te Tino Ora Koe i te 'TŌ TAHA'"

I te FESPA 2026 i Barcelona (Mei 19–22), kāore i te whakaatu noa a IECHO i ngā mīhini tapahi matua e waru i te Whare 3-C131, engari i hopukina hoki ngā urupare pono mai i ngā hoa mahi roa. I whakapuaki a Dave, te kaituku a IECHO i Airana, i ōna whakaaro pono mō ngā tau maha o te mahi tahi me IECHO i mua i te kāmera.

Ngā Tau o te Hononga Tohatoha: Mai i te Mīhini Kotahi ki te Arataki Mākete

"Ko Dave ahau nō Airana, te kaituku a IECHO i te motu. He maha ngā tau e mahi tahi ana māua me IECHO," te tīmatanga a Dave. "He hononga tino pai, tino pai tā māua. He maha ngā waeine kua hokona e māua i te mākete o Airana, ā, kei te whai tonu māua kia noho hei kaiārahi mākete i Airana. Ki taku whakaaro kei te mahi tahi māua i tēnā, ā, he mahi pai tā māua – kāore?"

Kāore āna kupu i te whakaū noa i te mahi tahi kaha, engari i whakaata hoki i te hanganga hongere pakari a IECHO i ngā mākete o tāwāhi. Hei kaituku, i tāpiri atu ia, "E tino harikoa ana mātou ki ngā mīhini. Ki taku whakaaro he hua pai rawa atu, he tino pai te hanga. E hiahia ana mātou ki te hoko atu i ētahi atu waeine ki Airana, koia mātou me mahi tahi – ā, me āwhina mai hoki koe i a mātou ki te tāuta i ētahi atu mīhini."

I te pātaitanga mō te wheako o te kiritaki whakamutunga ki ngā mīhini kua tāutahia, ka mea a Dave, "Ki taku whakaaro he tino pai. He pai te huarahi mahi a mātou i tēnei wā. I reira koutou i te tīmatanga, e āwhina ana i a mātou ki te tāutanga, ā, ko te tautoko tonu ka tiakina e mātou. Ko te mea pai kei reira tonu koutou mēnā e hiahiatia ana e mātou. I ngā wā katoa ka puta he raruraru, ka tere te urupare – koinei te wāhi e whiwhi ai mātou i te whakautu."

"I TŌ TAHA" – Ehara i te Pepeha, engari he Mahi o ia Rā

I roto i te uiuinga, i whakaurua e te māngai o te IECHO te rapunga whakaaro ratonga a te kamupene – “I TŌ TAHA.” I tino pārekareka a Dave ki tēnā. “Ko te ratonga me te tautoko ngā mea tino nui,” tana whakanui. “Me tino eke te hangarau ki tētahi taumata – me pai, me mahi i te mahi. Ki te kore, he aha te take e titiro ai te kiritaki ki reira? Engari i muri i tēnā, kei reira te tautoko me te ratonga – ā, he tino nui rawa atu ēnei.”

I haere tonu ia, "Ko tā mātou wheako ki a IECHO, mēnā e hiahiatia ana taua tautoko, he tino tika tāu pepeha. Ka mahi tahi mātou me ā mātou kiritaki whakamutunga, ā, i te mutunga ka kōrero ngā kiritaki tetahi ki tetahi. E hiahia ana rātou ki tētahi mīhini pono, engari i ētahi wā ka raru pea ia mīhini, ka hiahia rānei ki ētahi whakangungu, ki ētahi pātai pūmanawa rānei. Ko tā mātou wheako ki a IECHO he mahi tahi – kei reira koe ina hiahiatia koe e mātou, ā, he mārama kei reira koe ina hiahiatia koe e ngā kiritaki. Nō reira, he wheako tino pai, tino pai rawa atu."

I whakanui a Dave i te apiti o IECHO i Tiamana me ngā miihini o te rohe: "Ka whakatūria e koe tō apiti ki Tiamana, ā, kei a koe anō hoki ngā miihini o te rohe kia tere ai tā rātou whakautu ki ngā kiritaki. Ā, koinei anō te take e whakarite ana koe i ngā tohunga hangarau o IECHO ki te mahi i te awatea me te pō, i ngā wiki mutunga rānei, i ngā hararei rānei – kia tino tere tonu te whakautu. He tino pai tēnei mā mātou nā te mea he maha ā mātou kiritaki – he kamupene nui – engari i Airana he maha rawa ngā kamupene iti, kotahi, e rua rānei ngā tāngata. Nā te mea he kaiwhakahaere rangatira rātou, ka mahi pea rātou i ngā hāora rerekē – i muri mai, i mua atu, i ngā wiki mutunga rānei. He mea whakamiharo te whai i taua taumata tautoko tāpiri. Ko te tikanga ka taea e mātou te tuku i te māia ki ngā kiritaki: ki te mea he pātai tā rātou, ka taea e mātou te whakautu; ki te kore e taea e mātou, ka āwhina koe i a mātou ki te whakautu. Nō reira, he tino pai, he tino pai te mahi."

Ratonga Whai Muri i te Hoko: Te Kī mō te Mahi Roa

I kī te māngai o te IECHO, "He mea tino nui te ratonga whai muri i te hoko, inā koa mō ngā mahi roa. Kia pai te ratonga, ā, ka nui ake ngā pakihi ā muri ake nei." I whakaae katoa a Dave. "He mea nui te tautoko – koinei pea te mea tuatahi kāore e tino maiohahia e te tangata, engari ina raru rātou, ka tino maioha rātou. Nō reira he mea pai. He wheako pai."

I mahara anō a Dave ki ngā haerenga a ngā miihini IECHO ki Airana. "E mōhio ana ahau kua tae atu ētahi o ā koutou miihini, ā, ki taku whakaaro he pai ā rātou wheako. Kua arahina rātou e mātou, ā, ka tūtaki rātou ki ngā kiritaki whakamutunga me te kite i ētahi mahi ā-rohe. He mea pai anō hoki tēnā. Nō reira, ko te tumanako ka pai anō hoki ō wheako ki a mātou – ehara i te mea ko mātou anake te titiro atu ki a koe. Tērā pea ka taea e mātou te whakahaere i te mahi tahi me mātou – he mea nui tēnā ki ahau."

I te pātaitanga atu mō ētahi whakaaro mō IECHO, ka kata a Dave. "Kāo. Ki taku whakaaro me mahi tonu tāu e mahi nei. Me mahi tonu i ngā mahi auaha, me whakaputa tonu ngā hua, me mahi tonu i ngā hua kia pai, me mahi tonu i te kounga - koia tonu tēnā. Ā, me mahi tonu tāu e mahi nei, nā te mea kei te tino pai tāu e mahi nei - ehara i te mea mā mātou anake, mā ngā kaihokohoko, engari mā ētahi atu mākete, mā ētahi atu kaihokohoko me ētahi atu wāhi anō hoki. He rite tonu te āhua o te katoa. Me mahi tonu tāu e mahi nei."

Te Tirohanga ki Mua: Te Tākai me ngā Tēpu Iti hei Wāhi Tipu Hou

I te pātai a te māngai o te IECHO mō ngā wāhanga mākete kāore anō kia whakamahia, ka whakautu whakaaro a Dave. "Ko ētahi o ngā tēpu iti ake pea – ko te takai pea. Ko ēnei ngā wāhanga kāore anō kia tino tūhuratia e mātou. Kei te tumanako ahau ki te mahi i tētahi wāhanga o tēnā." Kātahi ka pātai ia, "He mea tēnā e koa ai koe ki te āwhina i a mātou?" Ka whakahoki te māngai o te IECHO me te kore whakaroa, "Ae rā."

I kī a Dave kei roto i te mākete o Airana ngā umanga nunui me ngā awheawhe iti, ā, ko ngā takai me ngā tēpu tapahi iti e tino rite ana ki ā rātou hiahia. Mā te tautoko a IECHO, e whakapono ana ia ka taea e tana kamupene te whakawhānui ake i tana wāhanga mākete me te whakaū i tōna tūranga hei kaiārahi mākete o Airana.

Whakamutunga: Ko te Hononga-Arotahi ki te Kaituku ka Whakatairanga i te Angitu mo te Wā Roa

Ehara i te mea he whakaaturanga noa iho tēnei uiuinga poto engari he whakaata pono i te whakapau kaha roa a IECHO ki te kaupapa "I TŌ TAHA". Mai i te R&D ki te urupare i muri i te hoko, mai i ngā miihini ā-rohe ki te tautoko hangarau 24/7, e whai ana a IECHO kia noho hei hoa otinga tapahi pono rawa atu mō āna kaituku me ngā kiritaki mutunga o te ao.

E ai ki tā Dave i whakatau ai, "Kei te tino pai rawa atu tāu mahi - ehara i te mea mō mātou anake, engari e mōhio ana ahau kei te pērā anō hoki ngā whakaaro o ētahi atu mākete, o ētahi atu kaihokohoko." I te heke mai, ka whakarongo tonu a IECHO ki ngā reo o ōna kaituku me te mahi tahi me ngā hoa mahi ki te whakatairanga i ngā whakapainga tapahi atamai puta noa i ngā tohu, ngā takai, ngā tānga mamati me tua atu.
