Najah's Latest Article
To all my male friends, I encourage you to read this book to learn about a different kind of power. One that brings humanity into capitalism. You will learn from a leader who led a country during the COVID-19 pandemic (and managed to have the lowest case per capita in the world), a terrorist attack, a volcanic eruption, and a climate change crisis, and still managed to be re-elected with a majority for a second term.
To all my female friends, read this book as proof that being a mom and a leader are not mutually exclusive. Jacinda Ardern was only the second prime minister to give birth while in office, and she got re-elected.
Her experience reminds us that kindness and empathy are incredible sources of power that should not be underestimated or dismissed. As we witness the ongoing challenges in my beloved Syria, I hope that leaders there realize the immense importance of empathy in leadership.
I highly recommend this book. Here is my full review.
