![]() For example, she explores leadership in the military in multiple essays without ever acknowledging its contribution to systemic injustice or the climate crisis. Some of the examples of leadership she uses also bothered me. She uses extremely generalized, declarative statements throughout the book without taking the reader on any sort of journey as to how she came to those bold claims. I also liked her essays on the empowerment and importance of facing reality by looking at the current state of society through the lens of historical civilizational decline, and then choosing to continue your social change work with courage anyway (not Hope). She also includes an essay at the end on the importance of practicing meditation to learn how to respond instead of react, which I agree is vital to improving as a compassionate leader and person. I appreciate how she calls leaders to be “more human” humans and re-ground in compassion during times of crisis. Overall, I thought this book was just okay, but I definitely had several meaningful takeaways.
