REMOVE THE ARMOUR.

LEAN INTO COURAGE.

Discover What Dare to Lead™ Can Teach You

Daring leadership is a collection of four courage skill sets that are 100% teachable, measurable, and observable. In this program, you will develop the skills it takes to do brave work, have tough conversations and show up with your whole heart.

The Dare to Lead™ training program is divided into four learning modules:

• Rumbling with Vulnerability – Learn how to face risk, uncertainty, and tough conversations with courage, clarity, and empathy.
• Living Into Your Values – Identify what you stand for and how to show up from a place of integrity every day.
• Braving Trust – Discover how to build meaningful and authentic connections with your teams, colleagues and customers so you can work together from a foundation of trust.
• Learning to Rise – Become aware of your emotions and stories and learn how to show up and lead with courage – even when faced with failure, disappointment, and setbacks.

When done right, these skills enable leaders to create safe spaces for teams to experiment with creativity and innovation, which in turn leads to increases in productivity and employee engagement.

What to Expect from Dare To Lead™

“We need braver leaders and more courageous cultures.”
~Dr. Brené Brown

True leadership isn’t about power over people; it is about power with people. Nor is leadership about titles or the corner office. It’s about the willingness to step up, put yourself out there, and lean into courage. The world is desperate for braver leaders. It’s time for all of us to step up, put down the armour and lean into impactful leadership practices that cultivate connection and caring for our most important resource – people.

 What does this look like in action? It means:

•  Acting with power and purpose, rather than acting bogged down by mindless activity.

•  Moving from simply interacting to relating by caring about others. 

•  Focusing on the success of the team and department.

•  Looking for opportunities to solve problems and create value. 

•  Drawing on the power of shared values.
