Dear Editor,
As the next election approaches, it is imperative for Bahamians to consider not only the Vision of the Political Party expressed through its Leadership but also their capacity to lead our nation into a future defined by innovation and digital progress. In today’s interconnected world, our success hinges on embracing digital transformation, a goal that requires visionary leadership supported by a team that embodies the best of our collective talent.
The digital era offers unprecedented opportunities to enhance public services, stimulate economic growth, and improve the overall quality of life for every Bahamian. However, these opportunities will remain unrealized unless our future leader is capable of assembling a team capable of driving this change. We need leaders who not only understand the transformative power of technology but are also committed to recruiting experts and surrounding themselves in digital strategy, cybersecurity, data analytics, and cloud computing. A diverse and dynamic team will be essential in navigating the challenges and harnessing the full potential of digital innovation.
Moreover, a team with a strong grasp of technology must work in tandem with professionals from various sectors, like our public administration, finance, banking, hospitality & tourism, and education, to create integrated solutions that benefit all citizens.
A leader like Michael C. Pintard, who values collaboration and inclusivity, is someone who resonates with me and the digitally immersed Gen Z and Millennial Generations. He has the potential to empower our nation to compete on a global stage while ensuring that every Bahamian feels included in this transformative journey.
In the upcoming election, we need to support a leader like Michael C. Pintard and his candidates, who are equipped and capable of building such a strong team.
Leadership today is not measured solely by individual prowess but by the collective strength of the team they assemble. As voters, we must advocate for a future where the government not only adapts to this digital age but also leads it, transforming the Bahamas into a beacon of progress and innovation in the Caribbean and beyond.
I urge Millennials and Gen Zs to re-engage in the political process, register to vote, encourage their peers to do the same, and most importantly, exercise this right when the election bell is rung.
Remember, we will get the change we Vote for, not just wish for.
Sincerely,
Eden Merry Johnson
A Gen Z & FNM Supporter
