In this episode of Executive with a Cause, host Tammy Ven Dange chats with Jim Lynch, founder of Zealandia, an eco-sanctuary in Wellington, New Zealand.
From a pipe-dream in the nineties to creating what’s heralded as the world’s first ‘mainland island eco-sanctuary,’ Jim takes us through the journey of turning his conservation passion into a financially sustainable park that has inspired others with his 500-year plan.
Jim recognised that conservation projects often lived and died with their founder. Therefore, from the beginning, Zealandia’s plan was for diverse income streams to support this long-term vision, including raising revenue and awareness through their in-person sanctuary experiences. Now expanding this conservation model, Jim hopes to apply the restoration approach to Puketahā in the Wellington region, and beyond.

IT in Plain English
This week’s episode breaks down the mystery surrounding ‘shadow IT’ in organisations. Increasingly popular as software becomes more accessible, this ‘doubling up’ of the IT function can pose a data and governance risk to your organisation.
Shadow IT systems also cause problems for the actual IT departments, who may be unable to assist with issues for software they haven’t been involved in. Tune in to find out Tammy’s advice for this, so you can feel confident your IT infrastructure is both centrally managed and secure.
