NZ Asian Leaders (NZAL) is a professional organisation aimed at accelerating Asian Leaders’ contribution to New Zealand. Established in 2013, NZAL is recognized as a place that connects, inspires and grows Asian leaders across New Zealand. NZAL promotes diversity in New Zealand businesses and facilitates access to Asian perspectives and leadership.

Prior to the launch of the organisation, there was a noticeable lack of Asians in top leadership positions in New Zealand companies. Having identified this gap, NZAL was established to provide a place for Asian New Zealanders who are leaders in their fields, to enjoy peer to peer support and have visibility with New Zealand companies.

The role of NZAL is to promote cultural diversity, leadership and the role of Asian leaders in New Zealand’s future.
