Women leaders across the world have done a better job dealing with the pandemic. Studies have found that outcomes related to Covid-19, including number of cases and deaths, were consistently better in countries led by women. Why is that?
As part of my new television series, Dangerous Women: Leading Onward, I asked journalist Christiane Amanpour that question. Amanpour recently did an interview with former Australian prime minister Julia Gillard and Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, the new head of the World Trade Organization, the first African woman to do so.
Amanpour reflected on women, leadership and the ways in which women lead differently than men. She talks about the qualities and leadership lessons we can learn from female elected officials who are succeeding.
Watch more of our wide-ranging conversation in which Amanpour reflected on her own career and what it’s like to be a woman in a war zone at FinTech.TV.
