Streicker Center: Dame Jacinda Ardern—A Different Kind of Power

The Right Honourable Dame Jacinda Ardern was elected the 40th Prime Minister of New Zealand at the age of thirty-seven, becoming the country’s youngest Prime Minister in more than 150 years. Ardern exemplifies a new kind of leadership – proving that leaders can be caring, empathetic and effective. After becoming a global icon, she’s ready to share 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.

The Temple Emanu-El Streicker Cultural Center is proud to host Ardern to reflect on the struggles, triumphs and deeply personal experiences that shaped her leadership style and what she’s learned along the way.
