This workshop is all about your own leadership self-awareness, identifying your call to courage as a leader and the learning, practice and integration of the four courage skills sets so you can show up authentically in life and leadership. Dare to Lead? is the ultimate playbook for developing brave leaders and courageous cultures. The greatest barrier to daring leadership is not fear; the greatest obstacle is armor ? how we self-protect when we feel uncertainty, risk and emotional exposure. Learn the skills to move from armored leadership to daring leadership. Daring leaders are self-aware, know how to have hard conversations, hold themselves and others accountable, build trust, lead with empathy and connection, take smart risks that lead to innovation, reset quickly after disappointments and setbacks, and give and receive feedback. This interactive curriculum is delivered in five, half-day sessions and is based on the research by Bren‚ Brown. This course comes with a PDF workbook and an Amazon gift card to purchase the Dare to Lead? book in the version of your choice. You also have access to a series of leadership and personal development assessments and exclusive training videos led by Dr. Bren‚ Brown. At the end of the event, a digital badge is awarded to those who complete 24 hours of course content.
