Description

Few leaders have captured the world’s attention quite like Jacinda Ardern has!

As Prime Minister of New Zealand, she became known for her compassion, her decisiveness, and her ability to lead through crises with grace.

Now, after stepping away from politics, Jacinda is finding new ways to influence change - through her work at Harvard, her continued advocacy for kindness and integrity in leadership, and her role as a mother navigating what balance really means.

In this episode of Empowering Leaders, Luke Darcy speaks with Jacinda about what she’s learned in reflection, the human cost of leadership, and how we might build a future shaped by empathy rather than fear.
