“We live in a world battling for peace, threatened with violence, where inequality is justified as both means and ends. This self-destructive worldview is dominated and backed by spurious arguments for a leadership based on the idea of supremacy of a race, religion, or culture. Monica Sharma’s counterargument is gentle and persuasive. Her voice, based on experience and conviction, strengthens the case that leadership can be shaped with equality, freedom, and justice, rooted in the transformational power of human compassion.”
