Today I am speaking with Elizabeth Fitton Higgins and Eunchim Choi from the Mangrove Collective. The Mangrove Collective is a for-purpose international humanitarian and development consultancy, based in New Zealand and Singapore with a focus on the Pacific and Asia regions. 

In this powerful conversation we learn how the lack of support for working mothers in a corporate NGO environment became a catalyst for one of the founding principles for The Mangrove Collective.   We hear how the Collective practices a strong culture of support and collegiate thinking.  We learn about the chaotic early days and how  the MC  turned it around to create a stable pipeline of work that they really love doing.  And finally the Mangrove Collective have some great advice for those just starting out on their consulting journey.
