From Prime Minister to Opposition: Chris Hipkins' Resilient Leadership Journey in New Zealand Politics

In this insightful episode of the Lead on Purpose podcast, we welcome Chris Hipkins, former Prime Minister of New Zealand, as he shares his remarkable journey from a senior government minister supporting Jacinda Ardern to unexpectedly stepping into the role of Prime Minister. 

Chris discusses the importance of embracing opportunities, the values that guide his leadership, and his perspectives on economic inequality and democracy. He also reflects on his current role in the opposition, the challenges of balancing critique with constructive politics, and the personal philosophies that have shaped his career.

Join us for a deep dive into the life and thoughts of a leader who continues to navigate the complexities of New Zealand politics with purpose and resilience.

You will also hear my son, Finn, interviewing Chris at the end of the episode.
