Description
"What if we could redefine leadership? What if kindness came first? Jacinda Ardern grew up the daughter of a police officer in small-town New Zealand, a Mormon girl plagued by self-doubt. But as prime minister of her country, she commanded worldwide respect for her empathetic leadership, made political history, and changed our assumptions about what a global leader can be. When Jacinda Ardern became prime minister at age thirty-seven, the world took notice. But it was her compassionate, powerful response to the 2019 Christchurch mosque attacks, resulting in swift gun-control reforms, that exemplified a new kind of leadership--one that is caring and effective. She guided her country through unprecedented challenges—a volcanic eruption, a major biosecurity breach, and a global pandemic—and advanced visionary new policies to address climate change, reduce child poverty, and secure historic international trade deals. She did this all while juggling first-time motherhood in the public eye. She is a global icon, and now in this remarkable book she shares her story, from the struggles to the surprises, including the full details of her decision to step down during her sixth year as prime minister"--
