He kōrerorero ki a Kate

Ko te whakarite i ngā mea tana parāoa me tana pata. I kōrerorero mātou ki tō mātou Kaiwhakahaere Kaupapa, a Kate Van Arts, mō ngā āhuatanga o te whakahaere auaha, kiritaki me te whiwhi i te nuinga o ia kaupapa.

He aha koe i uru ai ki te whakahaere kaupapa?

I ako ahau i tētahi Bachelor of Communications i Massey, ā, i arohaina e au, kātahi ka haere ki aku tūranga mākete tuatahi, ā, i kino ki a ia. Ko te whakahaere kaupapa taku mahi whakamutunga ki te ngana ki te mahi. I taka ahau ki tēnei tūranga, a, i kitea he maha ngā pouaka mōku. Ko te whakarite, ngā tahua, ngā rārangi mahi me te whakarite i ngā mea taku parāoa me te pata.

He aha te PM tino pai?

E tino hiahiatia ana te āheinga ki te whakamahere ki mua. I taku tīmatanga tuatahi, i te whakaaro noa iho ahau i te wiki ki mua nā te mea he nui rawa ngā mea e haere ana. Engari ināianei ko te ariā o tēnā e tino āwangawanga ana i a au. Nā reira, ko te whakaaro i ngā wiki i mua, te tūmanako me te mārama ki ngā tūtuki tere me te rite ki te anga atu ki a rātou he kī.

He aha te wero nui rawa atu ki te whakahaere i tētahi tīma auaha?

E tino hiahia ana te katoa ki te mahi, ā, kua rite ki te mahi uaua mō ā mātou kiritaki. Nā reira, ko te wero kei te whakataurite i te hiahia o tētahi ariā ki te pono o ngā rārangi wā, ngā tahua me ngā tūmanako. He māminga te kaikawe i ngā rongo kino i ētahi wā; e mōhio ana ahau e hiahia ana ahau kia tino auaha te katoa, engari i ētahi wā ko te tikanga o ngā herenga me whakahoki mai. He roa te wā kia whai whakaaro ki te pupuri i ngā mea ki te tirohanga me te pono. Engari he whaitake hoki ahau - kei te pātai tonu ahau, me pēhea e taea ai e mātou te tauine whakarunga, whakararo rānei, me pēhea e pupuri ai mātou i te whāinga o te ariā whakamīharo?

He aha tō aki mō te pupuri i ngā tīma i runga i te ara?

Mō tō mātou tīma ā-roto, he nui tōku whakapono ka tukuna ngā mea i te wā tika. Nā reira, ehara i te takiuru auau, kua hangaia e au ngā pātahitanga ki tō mātou tīma e arotahi ana ki te tautika. Ki te kore tētahi mea e whakaritea, ka rutu wawe mātou, ā, ka kōmakatia. Mō ngā kiritaki, ko taku aki matua ko te whakapā tonu. Ka āwhina i a rātou kia rongo me te whakarite kei te rongo rātou i te āhua o te tukanga. 

Me pēhea koe e pupuri ai i ngā pātahitanga kiritaki pai?

Ki a au, he mea nui te pono me te pupuri i ngā mea katoa kia pūataata. Ahakoa he tere tere, he māharahara, he toa rānei - ka puta atu ahau i te wāhi tuwhera. Ko te tikanga o te waihanga i ngā tūāpapa o te whakawhirinaki me te tuwhera, he mahi ngātahi e haere ana i ngā ara e rua. Mā te tino mārama ki te kiritaki me te whakahaere e āwhina ki te whakarite i tā mātou ratonga ki ngā mea e hiahiatia ana e rātou.

He aha i hira ai te noho hei kaitaunaki mō te kiritaki?

He tino taonga ki te kiritaki te rongo i roto i tētahi kaupapa. Sometimes it's about taking them along an education process to work out what they actually need, and other times, it's about meeting those needs from the get-go. Mā te noho hei reo mō rātou puta noa i te kaupapa ka āwhina ki te tuku rongoā tōtika, ā, ka tino pai tā mātou mahi ngātahi ki a rātou. 

He aha te tohutohu tino pai kua whiwhi koe?

Kaua e kī 'um'. Kua mau ki a au nā te mea i te meneti i korerotia mai ki a au, i kite ahau i mahia e ētahi atu. Māna ahau e pōturi me te tātai i tāku e ngana ana ki te kōrero - te mahi i ngā mea e pā ana ki ngā mea tino hira.

He aha tāu mea tino pai e mahia ana e mātau hei studio?

He mea iti, engari he kapu huatau rārangipāpāho tā mātou. Kāore e hiahiatia kia whakarongo mātou ki te rārangipāpāho ōrite i te tāruatanga, i te momo pūoro ōrite rānei i ia rā. Ko te tikanga o tēnā ko te rerenga kētanga, ngā rangi, me te mea nui rawa, ko ngā pahū whenua.

Ki tōu whakaaro he aha te mahi pai ake a te umanga i runga i te ahurea studio?

E mōhio ana tātau katoa he mate noa iho te wera. He tino pai te tīma i konei ki te tautohe mō te whakatā, kia pai te whārite mahi/ora, ā, kāore e mahi ki te mate-ā-InDesign. Ko te whakataurite i tēnā e pā ana ki te mōhio āhea pana ai, āhea hoki e kume. He aha ngā rohenga, he aha ngā mea e puta ana i roto i te tīma, he aha ngā pūkenga, he aha tā mātou e hiahia ana ki te ako? He tino mīharo te kite i tēnā āhuatanga e whakamahia ana e ētahi atu umanga puta noa i te ao.
