What are you most proud of in business?
Building a tourism company over four lockdowns. I’m proud of pivoting in business alongside the trials of the current environment. Luxury LAS introduced event management services last year and we’ve been creating world-class events such as extravagant birthday parties since. We utilised our knowledge and resources throughout New Zealand to design unbeatable corporate incentives. Introducing new services within the business and exceeding customers expectations has been extremely rewarding.
What is your business ethos?
To love what you do. My team and I push each other to create and do things differently. To collaborate as it’s better together and to evolve through continuous learning.
What and who inspires you?
Peter Cooper – it’s inspiring to see his values reflected throughout the beautiful properties he designs. Peter’s kind to the planet and I resonate with that. He intertwines elements of New Zealand’s beautiful landscape into his designs and showcases art and history. He does things differently and that’s what inspires me.
What advice would you give to up and coming entrepreneurs?
Start young, dream big and never give up.
How do you define success?
I’ve loved watching each and every one of my team grow in business and develop their skills. We are learning every day.
What’s next for Kyria Warren?
I’m creating a sustainable wellness retreat to assist with mental health and healing past traumas through practices such as yoga, meditation, breathwork and goal setting. Health is important to me and I’ve gained an understanding of myself and the journey of life through holistic practices. It would be fulfilling to be able to offer others a safe space to heal and grow.
