WithDare to Lead, Brené brings decades of research to bear in a practical and insightful guide to courageous leadership. This book is a road map for anyone who wants to lead mindfully, live bravely, and dare to lead.Sheryl Sandberg, COO, Facebook, founder, LeanIn.Org and OptionB.Org<br><br>Brené visited Pixar to talk with our filmmakers. Her message was important, as movies are best when they come from a place of vulnerability, when the people who make them encounter setbacks and are forced to overcome them, when they are willing to have their asses handed to them. It is easy to sit backand talk about the values of a safe and meaningful culture, but extraordinarily difficult to pull it off. You don t achieve good culture without constant attention, without an environment of safety, courage, and vulnerability. These are hard skills, but they are teachable skills. Start with this book.Ed Catmull, president, Pixar and Walt Disney Animation Studios<br><br>Whether you re leading a movement or a start-up, if you re trying to change an organizational culture or the world,Dare to Leadwill challenge everything you think you know about brave leadership and give you honest, straightforward, actionable tools for choosing courage over comfort.Tarana Burke, senior director, Girls for Gender Equity, founder, theMe Too movement<br><br>We asked Brené to bring her work on courage and vulnerability to our Air Force base. This is a tough audience, many of them with significant combat experience. Within five minutes, you could have heard a pin drop. Brené cuts through the noise and speaks to what makes us human and makes the mission happen.Dare to Leadis about real leadership: tenacious, from the heart, and full of grit.Brigadier General Brook J. Leonard, United States Air Force<br><br>Brené is Google Empathy Lab s Obi-Wan Kenobi. She has profoundly inspired our product leaders to designin and embrace vulnerability, rather than engineer it out. It s a critical and transformative act to bring your alive, messy, wholehearted human self to work every day.Dare to Leadis the skillful and empowering Jedi training we have all been waiting for.Danielle Krettek, founder, Google Empathy Lab<br><br>Applying the principles fromDare to Leadto my work as a principal has transformed the way I show up with parents, students, and colleagues, and how I lead. Brené s words, stories, and examples connect with our hearts and minds, and her actionable approach gives us the tools to be braver with our lives and our work.Kwabena Mensah, PhD, assistant superintendent, Fort Bend ISD, Principal of the Year, Katy ISD and Texas Alliance of Black School Educators<br><br>Brené truly gives it all away in Dare to Lead. Courage is a set of teachable skills, and she teaches us exactly how to build those muscles with research, stories, examples, and new language. The future belongs to brave leaders, and she s written the ultimate playbook for daring leadership.Scott Harrison, founder and CEO, charity: waterThe Moment and the Myths<br><br>the moment the universe put the Roosevelt quote in front of me, three lessons came into sharp focus. The first one is what I call the physics of vulnerability. It s pretty simple: If we are brave enough often enough, we will fall. Daring is not saying I m willing to risk failure. Daring is saying I know I will eventually fail, and I m still all in. I ve never met a brave person who hasn t known disappointment, failure, even heartbreak.<br><br>Second, the Roosevelt quote captures everything I ve learned about vulnerability. The definition of vulnerability as the emotion that we experience during times of uncertainty, risk, and emotional exposure first emerged in my work two decades ago, and has been validated by every study I ve done since, including this research on leadership. Vulnerability is not winning or losing. It s having the courage to show up when you can t control the outcome.<br><br>We ve asked thousands of people to describe vulnerability to us over the years, and these are a few of the answers that directly pierce the emotion: the first date after my divorce, talking about race with my team, trying to get pregnant after my second miscarriage, starting my own business, watching my child leave for college, apologizing to a colleague about how I spoke to him in a meeting, sending my son to orchestra practice knowing how badly he wants to make first chair and knowing there s a really good chance he will not make the orchestra at all, waiting for the doctor to call back, giving feedback, getting feedback, getting fired, firing someone.<br><br>Across all of our data there s not a shred of empirical evidence that vulnerability is weakness.<br><br>Are vulnerable experiences easy? No.<br><br>Can they make us feel anxious and uncertain? Yes.<br><br>Do they make us want to self-protect? Always.<br><br>Does showing up for these experiences with a whole heart and no armor require courage? Absolutely.<br><br>The third thing I learned has turned into a mandate by which I live: If you are not in the arena getting your ass kicked on occasion, I m not interested in or open to your feedback. There are a million cheap seats in the world today filled with people who will never be brave with their lives but who will spend every ounce of energy they have hurling advice and judgment at those who dare greatly. Their only contributions are criticism, cynicism, and fearmongering. If you re criticizing from a place where you re not also putting yourself on the line, I m not interested in what you have to say.<br><br>We have to avoid the cheap-seats feedback and stay armor-free. The research participants who do both of those well have one hack in common: Get clear on whose opinions of you matter.<br><br>We need to seek feedback from those people. And even if it s really hard to hear, we must bring it in and hold it until we learn from it. This is what the research taught me:<br><br>Don t grab hurtful comments and pull them close to you by rereading them and ruminating on them. Don t play with them by rehearsing your badass comeback. And whatever you do, don t pull hatefulness close to your heart.<br><br>Let what s unproductive and hurtful drop at the feet of your unarmored self. And no matter how much your self-doubt wants to scoop up the criticism and snuggle with the negativity so it can confirm its worst fears, or how eager the shame gremlins are to use the hurt to fortify your armor, take a deep breath and find the strength to leave what s mean-spirited on the ground. You don t even need to stomp it or kick it away. Cruelty is cheap, easy, and chickenshit. It doesn t deserve your energy or engagement. Just step over the comments and keep daring, always remembering that armor is too heavy a price to pay to engage withNO. 1NEW YORK TIMESBESTSELLER Brené Brown has taught us what it means to dare greatly, rise strong, and brave the wilderness. Now, based on new research conducted with leaders, change makers, and culture shifters, she s showing us how to put those ideas into practice so we can step up and lead.<br><br>Don t miss the five-part HBO Max docuseriesBrené Brown: Atlas of the Heart!<br><br>NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BYBLOOMBERG<br><br>Leadership is not about titles, status, and wielding power. A leader is anyone who takes responsibility for recognizing the potential in people and ideas, and has the courage to develop that potential.<br><br>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 with others. We don t avoid difficult conversations and situations; we lean into vulnerability when it s necessary to do good work.<br><br>But daring leadership in a culture defined by scarcity, fear, and uncertainty requires skill-building around traits that are deeply and uniquely human. The irony is that we re choosing not to invest in developing the hearts and minds of leaders at the exact same time as we re scrambling to figure out what we have to offer that machines and AI can t do better and faster. What canwedo better? Empathy, connection, and courage, to start.<br><br>Four-time #1New York Timesbestselling author Brené Brown has spent the past two decades studying the emotions and experiences that give meaning to our lives, and the past seven years working with transformative leaders and teams spanning the globe. She found that leaders in organizations ranging from small entrepreneurial startups and family-owned businesses to nonprofits, civic organizations, and Fortune 50 companies all ask the same question:<br><br>How do you cultivate braver, more daring leaders, and how do you embed the value of courage in your culture?<br><br>In this new book, Brown uses research, stories, and examples to answer these questions in the no-BSstyle that millions of readers have come to expect and love.<br><br>Brown writes, One of the most important findings of my career is that daring leadership is a collection of four skill sets that are 100 percent teachable, observable, and measurable. It s learning and unlearning that requires brave work, tough conversations, and showing up with your whole heart. Easy? No. Because choosing courage over comfort is not always our default. Worth it? Always. We want to be brave with our lives and our work. It s why we re here.<br><br>Whether you ve readDaring GreatlyandRising Strongor you re new to Brené Brown s work, this book is for anyone who wants to step up and into brave leadership.6USDr. Brene Brownis a research professor at the University of Houston, where she holds the Huffington Foundation Endowed Chair at the Graduate College of Social Work.
