Dare to Lead

Programme overview

Dare to Lead™ is an empirically-based courage building programme for organisations who believe in leadership at every level.

Data that supports Dare to Lead is a combination of 20 years of ground-breaking research by Dr Brené Brown into courage, vulnerability, empathy and shame, and 7 years of interviews with 150 global leaders across disciplines from Special Forces to Pixar, non-profits, and Oil and Gas.

The research found that courage is made up of 4 teachable, observable and measurable skill sets:

  1. Rumbling with Vulnerability – Facing risk, uncertainty and emotional exposure with courage and clarity.

  2. Living into Our Values – Identifying, operationalising and practising the beliefs that we hold most important.

  3. Braving Trust – Creating or deepening connections in relationships and teams based on the seven elements of trust.

  4. Learning to Rise – Learning and growing from the failures, setbacks, and disappointments that are inevitable when we are brave with our lives.

Through attending this course, participants will:

  • Gain greater self-confidence, courage and tenacity

  • Feel braver and more assertive

  • Learn to align decision making with core values for longer term fulfilment

  • Get greater clarity on purpose and what is truly meaningful

  • Take bold, immediate steps towards personal and professional goals

  • Have greater self-awareness of what holds you back and moves you forward

  • Feel able to ask for what you need or want, with less fear around hearing “no”

  • Build greater resilience when faced with challenges & strategies to help overcome these
