Oprah Winfrey's Leadership Advice: "Channel your own inner Jacindas"

PROUD to have Jacinda Adern as MY Prime Minister. Just imagine, if ALL world leaders had even half the compassion and empathy as she does? The world readily WOULD be a much better place ❤️

Can't say it isn't exciting to hear Oprah praise Jacinda, but when I listened she also praised the peaceful and loving response from the Arab world. Opening people's minds and hearts to a peaceful way forward is the work of a great leader. I am proud of our Prime Minister. And of our new assault weapons laws.

Proud to be a woman from Christchurch, NZ

Jacinda has done New Zealand proud.

I felt so proud of my Prime Minister long before her phenomenal leadership demonstrated after the devastating mosque killings that took place on our Aotearoa soil and in the wake of this event my pride and gratitude for her soared to a whole other level! Her leadership including seeing the visibility of our (empathetic and approachable) police officers posted 24/7 outside every mosque in our country incl the one down the street from my house since the tragedy truly helped me on a personal level to overcome the shock and horror of realizing even our beautiful safe country is not exempt from evil. Leaders like Jacinda Adern are definitely role models for all of us wahine ma and especially for those around the world in positions of power that have the ability like her to bring people together in humanity - A true Leadership skill and attribute! Nga mihi nui kia koutou ki Women in the World, thank you for posting!! <3

"Ain't I A Woman" is a fantastic speech! Thank you for bringing it with you.

“Channel your inner Jacinda’s” 🙌💕 #MadeInNewZealand #ForTheLadys 🌍 lea

15:11 Proud of our PM, Jacinda Ardern!!!! 🇳🇿 #churr

"Channel your own inner Jacindas". That's a very high bar we MUST reach for, and help to raise even higher. Each generation has a choice to make, to repeat the errors of our less compassionate forbears, or to take the lessons from the best of both our forebears and our peers. Trump has set a bar so low that even slime can climb over it. Jacinta asks us to soar above the hate and the slime and over her bar to peace, and maybe save our people, and our world, from total destruction.

It’s easier to be ‘a Jacinda’ in New Zealand, that is why my parents came to New Zealand to let their children become more. In the USA, with a broken democracy, its near on impossible to rise from poverty to even working class, let alone Presidency

WTF to all the negative comments, esp to those who are not from New Zealand, not from Christchurch. You have no idea how this affected a community. How it affected a city. How it affected a country. Isn't change needed? Yes, we will never be able to stop these actions, but isn't it better to try than to say shoulda, woulda, coulda? Also, does it matter, at this time if she is labour or national? Simon Bridges has agreed with her actions over the shootings and changing our gun laws. Has any other country of late made changes to their laws within a week to try and stop this from ever happening again? Why do all you people have to be so fucking nasty and rude. Are your lives so perfect that you have to try and bring others down? Oprah is wealthy because SHE WORKED HER ASS OFF TO GET WHERE SHE IS!!!!! HOW ABOUT YOU DO THE SAME AND SEE HOW YOU WOULD SPEND YOUR MILLIONS!!!!! And those complaining about our Prime Minister, how about you look at you own 1st, before you look at ours. And to my fellow countrymen/women, who would you want for our leader, Jacinda or someone who wants their country to be white only, or change all of history to benefit them or who don't act at all during a disaster. Shame on all of you. This is why we live in such a negative society because it is so easy to be negative. Why can't you look at the positive? Rant over ...

JACINDA Adern really is a symbol of what it means to be human. Such sincerity and true love. No one can fake such a thing. Love from Canada!

That was not an ordinary speech,...love the way it started off, loved the energy throughout. Outstanding!

2019 I was one of the first female chefs and nutritionists to now be allowed work in Saudi Arabia. I was brought over to work in the Royal Palaces. At that time I wasn’t there long before the bombing in NZ went off. I was terrified at what that might mean for me as an Australian. Jacinda however handled the atrocity of that occurrence with so much compassion and total disdain as was due. She disarmed many in the Middle East with her swift actions and diplomacy. Thanks be. A year later she lead her country out of Covid ..with expeditions We are proud of you Jacinda ..second term. Now it’s time for Oz to bring in a woman of clear morals and Ethics without the jadedness that our heavy-handed male government must bring to our women in our government. It’s time that we are in unity. Thank you in the greatest gratitude Oprah that you have used your powerful voice to do this.

Girls leaders and women mentors...the change is here today. Females, like Jacinda, who choose to focus on spiritual solutions for basic needs, and men who stand behind their women create a strong force of power that uplifts and brings the world closer to a beautiful state of peace. ☮️

Jacinda Ardern u make our nation so proud. Kia Kaha Aotearoa

Behind Jacinda are the wahine toa of Aotearoa... We need change in the world for women and its coming... we have to heal the world.

I love this. Oprah is powerful, amazing, and right (as usual). Powerful words by Sojourner Truth that still ring true today. It is great that Oprah highlighted Jacinda Ardern. Jacinda is a spectacular example of potent and engaged leadership. Both Oprah and Jacinda are excellent examples of how to use a platform to make the world and life better. Soon after the Christchurch massacre I was on a business trip in Pakistan and the UAE, countless people commented to me that I live in the greatest country in the world (New Zealand) with the greatest leader in the world (Jacinda). I am writing this comment in August 2020, 16 months after this recording was posted, and Jacinda's handling of the COVID19 pandemic in 2020 has once again set the standard for superb leadership in the world. ((One technical comment about the video. I wish that the sound tech had done a better job with the recording. Maybe someone can go in and adjust the volume so that it isn't so variable.))

I was in New Zealand and Canada needs to adapt to New Zealand approaches Jody Wilson Raybould and Jane Poulter, need to hear Jarcina words. New Zealand also has a two tear court system, which addresses Mori indeginous people court case system, as well as formal court system from what I understand people can chose which court suits the case . great speech! thanks Oprah Winfrey!
