AN EVENING WITH JACINDA ARDERN, former Prime Minister of New Zealand
From the former prime minister of New Zealand Jacinda Ardern, then the world’s youngest female head of government and just the second to give birth in office, comes a deeply personal memoir chronicling her extraordinary rise and offering inspiration to a new generation of leaders. A DIFFERENT KIND OF POWER tells the remarkable story of how a Mormon girl plagued by self-doubt made political history and changed our assumptions of what a global leader can be. Ardern exemplifies a new kind of leadership -- proving that leaders can be caring, empathetic and effective. This is more than a political memoir; it's an insight into how it feels to lead.
