daring greatly™ and rising strong™ at work

“The world is desperate for brave leaders. It’s time for all of us to step up.” - Brené Brown

 

Based on the research of Dr. Brené Brown, Dare to Lead™ is an empirically-based courage building program designed to be facilitated by organizational development professionals.

The most significant finding from Brené’s latest research is that courage is a collection of four skill sets that are teachable, measurable, and observable. The Dare to Lead™ program focuses on developing these courage building skills through workshops, trainings, and coaching to help individuals, teams, and organizations move from armored leadership to daring leadership.

Individuals who successfully complete the full 24-hour Dare to Lead™ program can receive a certificate of completion and are allowed to put the Dare to Lead Trained badge on their LinkedIn account.

 

Dr. Brené Brown has spent the past two decades studying courage, vulnerability, shame, and empathy.

Dr. Brown is a research professor at the University of Houston where she holds the Huffington Foundation – Brené Brown Endowed Chair at The Graduate College of Social Work. Brené is also a visiting professor in management at The University of Texas at Austin McCombs School of Business.

She is the author of five #1 New York Times bestsellers: The Gifts of Imperfection, Daring Greatly, Rising Strong, Braving the Wilderness, and her latest book, Dare to Lead, which is the culmination of a seven-year study on courage and leadership.

Some of the ‘big ideas’ of Wholehearted Leadership:

  1. You can't get to courage without rumbling with vulnerability. Embrace the suck.

Vulnerability is defined as uncertainty, risk and emotional exposure. You can’t have creativity, innovation and courage without it. Organizations who do brave work and have courageous cultures have done the work to embrace vulnerability. It's messy but it's worth it.

  1. Self-awareness and self-love matter. Who we are is how we lead.

All meaningful change begins with self-awareness. Becoming aware of our thoughts, feelings and behaviours is a powerful step towards becoming the leader we want to be.

  1. Courage is Contagious

As you step into WHO you want to BE as a leader, you will give permission for others to do the same. Creating a culture of safety, where your team feels seen and heard will create a courageous ripple effect at work, in your homes and in your communities.

About cate BAio | Transformational life coach | nelson BC

I’m a certified coach who began my career in the fitness industry— as a leader, trainer, teacher, and presenter. In that chapter of my life, I witnessed many examples of antiquated leadership…

This old-school, armoured leadership has the unintended affect of keeping good people stuck in exhausting miscommunication, drama, and inefficiency.

I believe we are all leaders. The way we show up in our personal and professional relationships has far-reaching effects that can either elevate or dampen.

People who embrace brave leadership are change-makers. They create happier homes and better workplaces. Approaching life this way takes courage, compassion, authenticity, grace, and gratitude—which isn’t always easy.

I’m dedicated to helping leaders and teams discover new data driven strategies to build courageous cultures in which brave work, tough conversations and wholeheartedness is the norm not the exception.

 
 

If you’re interested in courageously taking responsibility for developing people and processes rather than chasing after titles and corner offices than I’m the coach for you.
