Episode 10 – Not Just Leadership Podcast – Malik Oedin and Fiolino Sinemoni Mavaetau

Language shapes connection and connection creates opportunity. In this episode, Dominic de Moura McCarthy sits down with Malik Oedin from New Caledonia and Fiolino Sinemoni Mavaetau from Wallis and Futuna to talk about the power of languages, leadership and global opportunity.

Together, they share the story behind the EnglishEquip project, an initiative helping young people in the French Pacific build confidence in English and access international education and local employment pathways. The conversation dives into why communication matters, how language can open doors and what drives both Malik and Fiolino to keep serving their communities through their work.

Not Just Leadership is proudly presented by the Global Institute for Leadership. Each week we bring honest conversations and reflections from across the Pacific, Latin America and Australia, because leadership is more than a title, it’s a journey.
