The Four Skill Sets of Courage
|
1. Rumbling with Vulnerability
Many of us were raised believing that vulnerability is weakness. This is a myth. Vulnerability is not weakness. It is our most accurate measure of courage. Vulnerability is also at the heart of so many of the other qualities that people say they want in their lives and work: joy, belonging, empathy, creativity, resilience, trust, accountability, problem-solving abilities and more. You can't get to courage without rumbling with vulnerability. 2. Living into our Values Being clear on our values helps us to navigate challenges and make difficult decisions. Practicing our values is different from professing them. When we practice our values, we have clarity about the behaviors that support us and which ones can be derailing. Daring leaders live into their values and are never silent about hard things. 3. Braving Trust Trust is an essential element of relationships and yet it can feel challenging to engage in conversations about trust when needed. When we define trust as a set of specific behaviors, it makes building trust, and discussing when it's been damaged, possible. As we create a shared understanding of the elements of trust, we are on the path to intentionally creating relationships and teams that are more resilient. Clear is kind. Unclear is unkind. 4. Learning to Rise If we are being brave with our lives, the question is not IF we will fall, but when. Learning resiliency is essential so that when we do fall, we can get back up and be ready for the next courageous act. When we have the courage to walk into our story and own it, we get to write the ending. But when we don’t own our stories of failure, setbacks, and hurt - they own us. Courageous people know that failure and setback are part of the learning process and they practice rising skills.

We’ve now tested this approach in more than fifty organizations and with approximately ten thousand individuals who are learning these skills on their own or in teams. From the Gates Foundation to Shell, from small family-owned businesses to Fortune 50 companies, to multiple branches of the U.S. military, we have found this process to have a significant positive impact, not just on the way leaders show up with their teams, but also on how their teams perform." ~ Dr. Brené Brown |
