Gaia van der Esch - How Women are Redefining Leadership

I talk with Gaia van der Esch about expanding our understanding of what leadership looks like. Gaia is the author of the new book 'Leading our Way' that features the stories of contemporary iconic women leaders: Christiana Figueres, Gitanjali Rao, Becky Sauerbrunn, Diane von Furstenberg, Tawakkol Karman, Comfort Ero, and Gloria Steinem.

She is currently leading a large international foundation working across the world to end poverty and exclusion and halt climate change.

politicwise - politics meets personal development
politicwise is where politics meets personal development.
It’s for those who want to make a difference in the world out there, while working on themselves: being the change they want to see. It’s for learners, beginners, the open-minded.
I bring together an eclectic mix of political leaders, scientists and change-makers to discuss the daily challenges of political leadership and the mindsets, tools and routines to thrive in politics.
