What If They Find Out That I Am…?

Scared? Weak? Imperfect? Human? Many extraordinary leaders have struggled with the balance between showing vulnerability and credibility. Dr. Brené Brown has invested years studying the connections between being vulnerable and being a strong leader – or simply a strong human. All of the practices of extraordinary leaders require a degree of emotional exposure or risk. All of the difficult conversations and breakthrough ideas are born from vulnerability. People who fear being wrong, being rejected, hurt, or ridiculed will never be able to reach their highest potential. In this module, learners will embrace vulnerability and identify how it is inextricably connected to authentic leadership and personhood.
