“I will always think it’s my problem, it’s not their problem.” She says so many things that are full of wisdom, and I would love to stop and meditate on almost every sentence. We have a political leader who sees conflicts as a possibility to grow by sitting and learning from the differing viewpoint. She sees herself as a bridge builder instead of a wall raiser. It is this ability to get close enough to everyone in the room to understand their viewpoint while being able to take a step back and have a look at the whole room, see the big picture. What can unite everyone—the common ground, right? Start from there to create understanding. That also means that she’s able to build trust with everyone in the room, which is one of the toughest tasks and one hell of a powerful skill for a leader.
