Description:

Mike Mendonça is the Chief Resilience Officer of Wellington, New Zealand. Named the fourth most livable city in the world by the Economist this year, Wellington has three central challenges: changing population, earthquakes, and sea level rise.


Mike’s office is tasked with confronting all of these, using a holistic framework that looks 100 years into the future to forecast how Wellington can continue being a safe and dynamic population center.


Today, we discuss how to incorporate indigenous knowledge into strategic planning, how to manage relationships with short-term results oriented peers, and the plan to quake-proof NZ’s capital city.
