What to expect

Read by former prime minister of New Zealand, Jacinda Ardern.

From the former prime minister of New Zealand comes a guide for young readers on chasing your dreams and embracing the unexpected qualities that truly make a person strong.

Young readers can discover:

  • The importance of kindness in leadership
  • How to manage imposter syndrome
  • Handling criticism
  • Learning how to understand your emotions
  • Turning your dream job into a reality


When Jacinda Ardern became prime minister of New Zealand, she was one of the youngest people and, at the time, the youngest woman leading a country. Many people thought she would never succeed—herself included. Wouldn’t her insecurity, overthinking, worrying and kindness stop her from being able to achieve her goals?

In the end it was exactly those attributes that made her into the empathetic, adaptable and effective leader that she was.

While sharing her own experiences and challenges as a young person, and then as prime minister, Jacinda Ardern wants to show YOU that true strength, success and power come from embracing ourselves just as we are—imposter syndrome and all.
