Skills Every Brave Leader Needs

Season #1

An engaged workplace is productive, joyful, and most importantly, requires a brave leader. Now when I say brave, I don’t mean that you have to go bungee jumping off bridges or step in front of cars to save kittens.

Bravery is a set of skills. You can learn the actions of bravery…even when you’re not feeling it.

In this episode, I share the 5 skills every brave leader needs in order to lead a healthy and joyful team. Hint: one of them has to do with the glass floor at the Sears Tower in Chicago. How do we engage our team in a way that’s fun and challenging, but they feel safe while doing so?
