Applications for the 2026 Kellogg Rural Leadership Programme are now open!
Do you know anyone interested in developing their leadership skills?
The Kellogg Rural Leadership Programme is designed for people wanting to develop their leadership skills in order to take on roles in management and governance in the primary sector.
Zespri are proud to sponsor one person from the kiwifruit industry each year to complete this prestigious programme.
This is a highly respected rural and primary sector programme, providing knowledge and skills for:
- Personal development and growth
- Developing the 'contextual intelligence' and thinking required for leadership
- Gaining greater insights into the primary industry sector
- Making strategic connections and networks.
To be eligible for the scholarship, you must have experience in the kiwifruit industry. Applicants should be able to demonstrate leadership potential and show motivation to be a leader of change in their business, community, or within the rural sector.
The successful recipient of the scholarship will receive their place on the Kellogg Rural Leadership programme, plus flights and accommodation necessary to complete the programme.
