Dare to Lead™ is a courage building program developed by Dr. Brené Brown. Participants learn the foundational skills that enable them to choose courage over comfort, instead of what is fast and easy. As a Dare to Lead™ facilitator our focus is on creating a safe and open learning environment where you will become more self-aware, embrace being authentic, and learn the skills necessary to be a courageous leader.

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Dr. Brené Brown has spent 20 years studying daring leadership. Her research includes more than 400,000 pieces of data, experiences inside of hundreds of organizations, and interviews with 150 global C-level leaders on the future of leadership. The research indicates that the demands on leaders today are very different than they were 10-15 years ago.

Leaders today are called to:

The Dare to Lead™ program teaches the skills needed to lead effectively in this environment. It 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.

THE FOUR SKILLS SETS OF COURAGEOUS LEADERSHIP

Rumbling with Vulnerability

Vulnerability is the emotion we experience during times of uncertainty, risk, and emotional exposure. Many of us were taught that vulnerability is weakness.

Vulnerability is absolutely required to be a courageous leader (and human). It’s the willingness to show up and be seen when we don’t know the outcome. Participants will learn how to get comfortable with the discomfort of vulnerability (rumble with vulnerability), earning grounded confidence and courage.

Living Into Our Values

Values are the beliefs that are most important to us, that help us find our way in the dark, and fill us with a feeling of purpose.

Since we know it’s easier to talk about values than to live them, participants will identify their guiding values and clearly name the behaviors that are required to live them.

BRAVING Trust

Trust is a learned skill and is the culmination of seven essential elements: Boundaries, Reliability, Accountability, Vault, Integrity, Non-judgment, and Generosity (B.R.A.V.I.N.G.)

Participants will practice a framework for building trust and learn to use that framework to guide (hard) conversations with others.

Learning to Rise

Learning to Rise requires recognizing that, as leaders, we are also human. We get hooked by emotion and inadvertently offload hurt, anger, or anxiety. The way we deal with our emotions can quickly derail effective leadership.

Participants will learn how to own their stories, how to deal with the emotions attached to them, and how to bounce back after failure.
