Empathy, Courage, and Leadership: A Conversation with the Former Mayor of Christchurch

Empathy, Courage, and Leadership: A Conversation with the Former
Mayor of Christchurch

 Lianne Dalziel is the former Mayor of Christchurch, an
international speaker on empathetic leadership and resilience, a
former member of Parliament where she served for 23 years, and a
lawyer. Lianne was appointed as a Companion of the New Zealand
Order of Merit in the King's Birthday and Coronation Honours List
2023.

Having represented an electorate that was hard hit by the
2010-2011 Canterbury Earthquake Sequence, Lianne has become a
respected champion of resilience with a strong understanding of
post-disaster challenges and opportunities. She has most recently
been invited to join the Global Board of Directors of the
Resilient Cities Network, which has a particular focus on climate
resilience.

Lianne was elected Mayor of Ōtautahi Christchurch in 2013 and
served three terms before stepping down at the election in
October 2022. The city faced a number of challenges during
Lianne's time as Mayor, including the March 15, 2019, terrorist
attack on the city's mosques.

Lianne and I spoke about leading with purpose, resilience, and
empathy. She was vulnerable and honest about her time as mayor of
Christchurch, and she shared so many incredible takeaways.
