Oiwi Leaders Mentorship Program

Our Program Manager Mapu Quitazol and Project Associate Keapo Bissen were honored to be selected for the 2025 Oiwi Leaders Mentorship Program cohort. A partnership program between the Native Hawaiian Chamber of Commerce and People Strategies Hawaiʻi, the program brings together emerging and seasoned Native Hawaiian leaders, executives, and community figures for mentoring, shared learning and growth with the goal to develop Native Hawaiian leaders and to build a pipeline of local talent for advanced leadership roles across our state.

From July through December 2025, Mapu and Keapo engaged with their mentors who uplifted, empowered, and inspired them in their professional journeys ahead.
