Leaders are people who hold themselves accountable for recognising the potential in people and ideas, and look to develop that potential. Bren Brown spent the past two decades researching the emotions that give meaning to our lives. She has found that leaders in organisations ranging from small entrepreneurial start-ups and family-owned businesses to non-profits, civic organisations and Fortune 50 companies, are all asking the same questions:How do you cultivate braver, more daring leaders? And, how do you embed the value of courage in your culture?Dare to Lead answers these questions, giving us actionable strategies and real examples from her new research-based, courage-building programme.This inspiring book shows us that, when we dare to lead, we donOt pretend to have the right answers; we stay curious and ask the right questions. We donOt see power as finite and hoard it; we know that power becomes infinite when we share it with others. We donOt avoid difficult conversations and situations; we lean into vulnerability when itOs necessary to do good work.Written with BrownOs trademark mix of research, storytelling and honesty, Dare to Lead is a book for anyone who is ready to choose courage over comfort, make a difference and lead.Praise for Bren BrownNBren empowers us each to be a little more courageousO The Huffington PostNBren cuts through the noise and speaks to what makes us humanO Brigadier General Brook J.
