Setting Up a New Organisation
About the Flow Chart
Before starting a new organisation, take some time to explore what already exists. Establishing and running an organisation takes significant time, effort, and resources. In many cases, partnering with or joining an existing organisation can be the most effective way to achieve your goals. Existing organisations often welcome passionate people who can bring new energy, skills, and ideas to their work, without you replicating the overheads.
Use the flowchart below to help determine whether a new organisation is needed and, if so, to understand the key considerations involved in setting one up.
Our Organisational Advisor is available to provide free, tailored advice and support along the way. If your initiative is a kaupapa Māori for-purpose organisation, our specialist Whakamana Tangata team can also help guide you through the process.
