Michael K Durie is a seasoned business professional who brings a wealth of experience and a passion for mentorship to Business Mentors New Zealand. 🌟 “I understand the benefits of sourcing professional support from others who’ve been through similar challenges. I enjoy helping mentees navigate through their own business challenges and seeing them thrive and grow. It’s a mutual journey of discovery and problem solving.” 💡 In Michael's view, mentorship isn’t a one-way street. It’s a dynamic exchange where both parties benefit. As a mentor, Michael offers personalised guidance to help businesses overcome obstacles, leverage strengths, and identify growth opportunities. But it’s not just about giving advice – he also gains valuable insights from his mentees, which helps him stay engaged and relevant in the ever-evolving business landscape. 🔄 🚀 Ready to experience the power of mentorship?

With Te Pae Christchurch Convention Centre opening in 2021, “bleisure” travel has skyrocketed in the city, proving crucial for off-peak visitation.
