NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY BLOOMBERG

Leadership isn't defined by titles, status, or wielding power. A leader is someone who takes responsibility for recognizing the potential in people and ideas and possesses the courage to nurture that potential.

Daring leadership involves not pretending to have all the right answers; it entails staying curious and posing the right questions. It rejects the notion of power as finite and believes that power becomes limitless when shared. It embraces difficult conversations and situations, leaning into vulnerability when needed for impactful work.

Yet, daring leadership within a culture marked by scarcity, fear, and uncertainty demands the development of deeply human traits. Interestingly, as we grapple to identify what uniquely human qualities we can offer in the face of machine and AI superiority, we simultaneously neglect to invest in nurturing the hearts and minds of leaders. What can we do better? To start, practice empathy, connection, and courage.

Renowned author Brené Brown, a four-time #1 New York Times bestseller, has dedicated two decades to studying the emotions and experiences that give meaning to our lives. Over the past seven years, she has collaborated with transformative leaders and teams worldwide. Regardless of the organization's size, from small startups to Fortune 50 companies, leaders share a common query: How can we foster braver, more daring leaders and embed the value of courage in our culture?

In this new book, Brown provides answers to these questions in her signature no-BS style, using research, stories, and examples. She asserts that daring leadership comprises four teachable, observable, and measurable skill sets. It involves learning and unlearning through courageous efforts, challenging conversations, and wholehearted engagement. Is it easy? No. Is it worthwhile? Absolutely. We aspire to live and work with bravery, and that's our purpose.

Whether you're familiar with Daring Greatly and Rising Strong or new to Brené Brown's work, this book is for anyone aspiring to step up and embrace courageous leadership.
