Former New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern shares insights and lessons in leading through crisis, reflecting on the challenges of leadership at the highest levels.

She shares how her empathetic leadership style, shaped by self-doubt, that drove her with the power of transparent communication and leading with trust, not ego, allowed her to move forward decisively.

Here are the Key Takeaways from her interview on Leadership:
1 – Imposter Syndrome Can Be a Leadership Asset
2 – Trust Is Built Through Honesty, Not Perfection
3 – Empathy and Resilience Aren’t Mutually Exclusive
4 – Crisis Is an Opportunity to Advance Policy Goals
5 – Sustainable Leadership Requires Self-Awareness

Tuesday’s newspaper front pages are dominated by the newly released audit led by Baroness Louise Casey into grooming gangs. The papers react to the details within the report especially focusing on the fact that authorities “shied away from the ethnicity” of the perpetrators over fears of raising racial tensions. 

The front pages leave space to report on the G7 summit, including the UK and US signing a trade deal and Donald Trump leaving the G7 early as the Middle East crisis escalates and commentators speculate if the US military is about to enter the crisis.
