Dare to Lead™ is an empirically based, courage-building program created for individual leaders and organisations by Dr. Brené Brown, a research professor at the University of Houston. She is also a TED speaker and a New York Times best-selling author.
Why Courage? Courage is consistently identified as the #1 must-have skill for leaders by C-level worldwide. The skills that make up courage are not new —they’ve been aspirational leadership skills for as long as there have been leaders.
The most significant finding from Brené’s research is that courage is a collection of four skill sets that are teachable, measurable, and observable. Dare to Lead™ breaks Courage into four practical, learnable skill sets and builds capability in areas that challenge many leaders and deeply impact organisational health and profitability.
What is Dare to Lead™?
The Four Skill Sets of Courage
Facing risk, uncertainty, and emotional exposure with courage and clarity. In other words the ability to stay grounded and open in challenging moments or conversations so we can stay connected to the bigger picture and model inspiring and caring leadership.
Rumbling with Vulnerability
Identifying, operationalizing and practicing the beliefs that we hold most important. Knowing what we stand for and intentionally leading and living in alignment with our values. In short, walking the talk.
Living into our Values
Creating or deepening connections in relationships and teams based on the seven elements of trust. Seven behaviors that make up the acronym “BRAVING” and help us approach, assess, and build 1:1 and team-level trust in concrete ways.
BRAVING Trust
Learning and growing from the failures, setbacks, and disappointments that are inevitable when we are brave with our lives. Mastering resilience, the vitally important reset, and recovery skills that help us pick ourselves up and keep moving forward with purpose, no matter what.

Unlike other leadership programs, Dare to Lead™ focuses on the inner working of leaders. It supports them to connect to their deepest human nature, to become the best version of who they are so that they can lead with more courage, more heart and make the difference they are meant to make around them.
Dare to Lead™ is modular and customizable.
As your coach and facilitator, my priority will be to learn about your priorities so I can assess your unique situation, and tailor the approach to your needs. Designed to foster growth, meaningful connection, and integrated learnings, expect my programs to be deeply engaging.

Integrity is choosing courage over comfort;
IT'S CHOOSING WHAT'S RIGHT OVER WHAT'S FUN, FAST, OR EASY; AND IT'S PRACTISING YOUR VALUES, NOT JUST PROFESSING THEM.

Who would benefit from Dare to Lead™?
Before its launch in 2019, the Dare to Lead™ program has been tested in more than 50 organizations and with approximately ten thousand individuals who are learning these skills on their own or in teams. It has been found that this process has significant positive impact, not just on the way leaders show up with their teams, but also on how their teams perform.
I know what it means to deliver results. As a senior executive I’ve built up a solid expertise in business and my work with leaders and teams draws on my deep understanding of this world and the inner working of an organisation.
You’ll see improvement in your performance, team moral, connection, resilience, communication and collaboration while creating a space for productive, necessary and yes, sometimes difficult, conversation to happen for the betterment of the organization as a whole. This program will support and empower your team members to show up at their best.
A program that delivers results.
