< Back Talei Bryant Mana Taiohi Facilitator I have been involved in youth development and youth work since 2018 since attending festival for the future Where I was inspired to start my own youth-led organisation called the Find Your Fish Movement. The aim of this movement is to help young people dive deep into ko wai au and find their passion and turn it into their profession. Over the years I have worked in numerous roles relating to rangatahi development. In 2023 I was the Campaign Lead for Youth Week and absolutely loved being able to work with Rangatahi across the motu and see all the amazing events that were happening. I currently work at Whakatane High School as the Attendance Coordinator Where my team and I cover the 20 schools in our regions. I have been facilitating Mana Taiohi workshops since 2020 and have loved meeting different people from different spaces who all want to support and uplift rangatahi. My facilitator style is full of energy, laughs and making sure everyone is engaged and understands the content. I like to do this wananga style and by doing activities that involve group work, skits and some really cool activities. I love that I get to share Mana Taiohi with the world! talei.bryant@whs.co.nz

Supervision Supervision in our sector is less about oversight more about a relationship, ideally external to your organisation, that asks the question: how super is your vision or how well do you see the work you do? The supervision relationship parallels the relationship we have with young people. Supervision provides youth workers with a safe place to reflect on professional development, personal support, organisational and practice issues, and to seek opportunities to increase effectiveness, safety and accountability within their practice. The Code of Ethics requires that youth workers actively participate in regular supervision.
