Former Black Ferns captain Farah Palmer (Ngāti Maniapoto, Waikato Tainui) was appointed as the deputy chair of Rugby NZ last month, making history as the first person to ever hold such a role within the organisation.
Dr Palmer is also the chair of the New Zealand Māori Rugby Board, and a senior lecturer at Massey University’s School of Management, where her mahi focuses on race, gender and sports management leadership. She joins the show to discuss the Women’s World Cup next year, where the game is at for women, and Māori tikanga in business.
