Dan’s story
The journey into leadership for Dan Yakas, currently Veolia’s Regional Lead for Whanganui and Taranaki, is an inspiring one. Leaving school after fifth form with no qualifications or school certificates, Dan got a job on the stop/go paddle with a contractor supporting the road maintenance and three waters maintenance teams. Demonstrating hard work, perseverance and the right attitude, Dan was offered a team leader role with Veolia in 2006.
Our people, our wai
“Water and the mana of water and what it actually brings to life on this planet. We must care for it when we take it. We must care for it when we use it and we must care for it when we put it back into the receiving environment.”
“Water helps us grow and thrive people, plants and animals. It’s a conduit for life. Everything is sacred and water is the thing that connects it all.”
– Anna Te Whaiti, Water Treatment Operator, Central Hawke’s Bay, Veolia Aotearoa NZ
