Virtual Dare To Lead™ workshop
The world needs more courageous leaders…
I have some incredible news! I have teamed up with Sandra Long, Certified Dare to Lead Facilitator to offer her workshops virtually! While there is no doubt that in person workshops provided us with an opportunity to share in a face to face setting, she also received some feedback that the travel and time commitment to carve out 2-1/2 days was difficult for some; especially now with day care, in home schooling let alone the fears of COVID exposure.
Our new virtual program will consist of 2-1/2 hours a week over an 8-week period. Dr Brown has updated our content with the most current, empirically based leadership research. Building on her two decade long study of courage, vulnerability, shame, and empathy, and a seven-year study on courageous leadership, Dr. Brown’s research reveals that the ideal leader is someone who cultivates a culture in which brave work, tough conversations, and whole hearts are the expectation.
As all of you know, the costs of in person learning versus virtual learning have been a hot topic across the country. Since we will not need to rent a facility or provide food, we are passing along those savings to our clients, contact me to get more details.
This is your opportunity to become a braver leader as you learn the four empirically proven skills sets of courageous leadership that are teachable, measurable, and observable:
Rumbling with Vulnerability: Facing risk, uncertainty, and emotional exposure with courage and clarity.
Living into our Values: Identifying, operationalizing, and practicing the beliefs that we hold most important.
Braving Trust: Creating or deepening connections in relationships and teams based on the seven elements of trust.
Learning to Rise: Learning and growing from the failures, setbacks, and disappointments that are inevitable when we are brave with our lives.
Are you ready to become a more courageous leader? Join us for a virtual 8-week workshop beginning Tuesday, January 12th, 2021. Click here for more details.
