Dare to Lead: Services

Designed with you in mind

I offer four different courage building programmes based on the research of Dr Brené Brown.

1.The Gifts of Imperfection - Letting go of who you think you're supposed to be and embrace who you are. A guide to a wholehearted Life.

2. The Daring Way. Focuses on courage building, and uncovering the power of vulnerability. The methodology is designed for work with individuals, couples, families, and groups.

3. Rising Strong. This is a programme about getting back up - shame resilience.

4. Dare to Lead  - Four skill sets that are teachable, measurable, and observable.  Developing  courage-building skills to help individuals, teams, and organisations move from armoured leadership to daring leadership. 

I just love doing this work. It's practical no BS approach and real impact aligns with how I approach the rest of my work.

The rigour and professionalism of these programmes is also expected of me as a Certified Daring Way™ and Dare to Lead™ Facilitator.  I can do this work with you because I have done the work, and continue to do the work myself.  I am not an expert at the front of the room.  I am a skilled practitioner working alongside you, who understands that doing this work is messy, tough, and hugely rewarding.  My clients say it is life-changing, and I agree.  The experience of two of my clients was featured in Next Magazine's March 2020 issue, along with my own story about doing this work.  You can read it here.

You can do this work with me in a number of ways.

  1. A keynote session.

  2. A personalised coaching engagement.

  3. A workshop with leaders in your town or city.

  4. A workshop in your workplace.

  5. A mix of workshop and professional coaching.

  6. Sports specific workshops and development coaching

ABOUT DARE TO LEAD™ AND DR BRENÉ
BROWN

Based on the research of Dr Brené Brown, Dare to Lead is an empirically based courage-building program designed to be facilitated by organizational development professionals.

Brené is a research professor at the University of Houston where she holds the Huffington Foundation – Brené Brown Endowed Chair at The Graduate College of Social Work. She has spent the past two decades studying courage, vulnerability, shame, and empathy, and most recently completed a seven-year study on courageous leadership. She is the author of five #1 New York Times bestsellers: The Gifts of Imperfection, Daring Greatly, Rising Strong, Braving the Wilderness, and Dare to Lead, which also debuted at #1 on The Wall Street Journal and Publisher’s Weekly list.

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. Certified Dare to Lead Facilitators focus on developing these courage-building skills through workshops, training and coaching to help individuals, teams and organizations move from armoured leadership to daring leadership.

 

Certified facilitators are authorized to issue Dare to Lead Trained certificates to individuals who successfully complete the full 24-hour training. In addition to receiving a certificate of completion, these individuals are allowed to put a Dare to Lead Trained badge on their LinkedIn account.

“The greatest barrier to courageous leadership is not fear—it’s how we respond to our fear. Our armour—the thoughts, emotions, and behaviours that we use to protect ourselves when we aren’t willing and able to rumble with vulnerability—move us out of alignment with our values, corrode trust with our colleagues and teams, and prevent us from being our most courageous selves.”

Brené Brown.
