About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

How do you cultivate braver, more daring leaders? And how do you embed the value of courage in your culture?

Written and read by NYT best seller Brené Brown, Dare to Lead answers these questions and gives us actionable strategies and real examples from her new research-based, courage-building programme.

Leadership is not about titles, status and power over people. Leaders are people who hold themselves accountable for recognising the potential in people and ideas and developing that potential. This is an audiobook for everyone who is ready to choose courage over comfort, make a difference and lead.

When we dare to lead, we don't pretend to have the right answers; we stay curious and ask the right questions. We don't see power as finite and hoard it; we know that power becomes infinite when we share it and work to align authority and accountability. We don't avoid difficult conversations and situations; we lean into the vulnerability that's necessary to do good work.

But daring leadership in a culture that's defined by scarcity, fear and uncertainty requires building courage skills, which are uniquely human. The irony is that we're choosing not to invest in developing the hearts and minds of leaders at the same time we're scrambling to figure out what we have to offer that machines can't do better and faster. What can we do better? Empathy, connection and courage, to start.

I definitely identify with the issues of shame and blame, I am one of those kids brought up with an inability to deal with confrontation in a healthy manner and it has effectively destroyed every relationship I've ever had.

I can listen to this over and over, not just because of the practical advice, but the way Brené makes one feel that it is okay to struggle, it is okay to lose your shit and over react, it is not only okay to fail, but to be expected.

The amount of research, information, and motivation in this book are phenomenal. I will embrace every aspect of the daring leadership as I go, and will definitely circle back to it one more time. Overall, a great listen. Every minute of it.

Thank you Brené for taking the extra time to narrate this.

Brene answers for me questions about how I have felt but couldn't articulate needalone seek out answers for.

Putting herself and others as examples of points she makes ensures the research she refers to is practical and relatable.

Brilliant!

This was a truly remarkable work, that has changed how I think of empathy and vulnerability in the workplace, but also in my personal life.

Exceptional!

This is a book whose time has come. Victor Hugo said: All the forces in the world are not so powerful as an idea whose time has come.

In the current environment with political upheaval, it feels like the old system and structures are being irrevocably changed. In all this, we need leaders to guide us. Having said that I believe people have given up on leaders and often choosing the best from a bad bunch.

This book is truly an idea whose time has come. By being vulnerable and human; leaders can really inspire and motivate others for the tumultuous times that is only just starting.

If nothing else, this book has given me confidence in the processes I use to develop leaders. One part emotional intelligence mixed with two parts bravery plus some practical skills.

I have not read any of her previous books, but I dare you to read this one.

In the right place at the right time

So powerful in clarifying how important it is to bring our real self to the world if we are going to have any significant impact on the world . I found the authentic approaches and techniques to connect with people and lead offered so implementable (with massive courage) I have realized this book is worth a relisten!
