About the Dare to Lead™ Program

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 lists.

The most significant learning within the Dare to Lead™ program is that courage is a collection of four skill sets that are teachable, measurable and observable. The Dare to Lead™ program focuses on developing these courage-building skills through workshops, trainings, and coaching to help individuals, teams, and organisations move from armored leadership to daring leadership. In this two day workshop you will further develop your leadership skills in a way that incorporates courage, strength and bravery at a level you will not have experienced before.

“You will be challenged to become a more vulnerable leader, to lead with values, build trust and rise above setbacks.”

Dare to Lead™ Program Overview

Rumbling with Vulnerability

Explore what it means to “rumble” and that the process of rumbling is more than just a weird West Side Story way to say, “Let’s have a real conversation, even it’s tough.”

Risk, uncertainty and emotional exposure
The six myths of vulnerability
A call to courage
Shame, empathy and emotional literacy
Armoured leadership versus daring leadership
Grounded confidence and rumbling skills

In this section of the Dare to Lead™ program, you will make rumbling become a serious intention and a behavioural cue or reminder that guides you when things get tough!

Living into our Values

Take time to reconnect with your values and beliefs that are most important to you and that help you find your way in the dark and that fills you with a feeling of purpose.

Naming values
Taking values from BS to behaviour
Giving engaged feedback
Recognising defensiveness in feedback conversations

In this section of the Dare to Lead™ program, you will answer important questions such as:

Does this define me?

Is this a filter that I use to make hard decisions?

BRAVING Trust

Consider two important elements of trust. Clear is kind. Unclear is unkind. The acronym BRAVING stands for Boundaries, Reliability, Accountability, Vault, Integrity, Nonjudgement, and Generosity.

Building Psychological Safety
BRAVING – Learn the 7 Elements of Trust
Trust with Others and Self

In this section of the Dare to Lead™ program, you will learn that BRAVING trust is all about being able to have a conversation from a place of curiosity, learning and ultimately trust-building

Learning to Rise

Recognise that learning to rise is about knowing when we are hooked by emotion. How do you know when your emotion grabs you?

Emotional hooks
Learn to manage yours and identify other’s offloading strategies
The reckoning: the importance of curiosity as a rumble tool
The rumble: the stories we tell ourselves and how they hold us back
The revolution: circle back, rewrite your story’s ending

In this section of the Dare to Lead™ program you will become better connected with the emotions that grab you, the way you respond and strategies for reckoning with emotion.

Testimonials

“The program provides such in-depth consideration of Brene Brown’s work. It gave perspective to the content but also drives you to continue to consider other ways and concepts that you may not have considered before. The group size means that you have opportunity to share and learn from others whilst also being able to work independently on the areas you want to. Highly recommend it!”

Carrie RoseApproved Provider, Rosies Early Learning

Phillip Ralph and the team at The Leadership Sphere run some of the best leadership development programs here in Australia and the recent Dare to Lead program was one of the best programs I have been a part of. Well structured, excellent content, and an amazing group of people on the program. Over the eight weeks of this virtual program I have transformed some key areas of my life and integrated new approaches to leadership at work and at home. A huge shout out to Phil and the team for running such high quality leadership programs and for having such a profound impact on those who were involved. I highly recommend the Dare to Lead program to individuals and groups who want to transform the workplace culture and have a passion for building high trust organisations!

Gavin AltusManaging Director, Sentrient

I found the Dare to Lead training incredibly valuable. The program is thought provoking and challenging at times in ways that encourages awareness and growth on different levels, and from this explores how we as individuals can build courage and then lead from it. The facilitators guided us through the material with compassion, understanding and insight and confirmed that we can never stop learning about ourselves and how we interact with the world. The group created a safe environment to explore issues of trust and courage and to unpack the stories we tell ourselves which keep us stuck or small. It was a wonderful and valuable experience that I highly recommend.
