Episode 46 - Courage of teams

Show Notes

When we’re buried in our todo lists, we can lack the courage to take bolder choices. Amy Riley discovered this first-hand through her work helping leaders become more courageous. Amy is an international best-selling author and keynote speaker who helps leaders fully step into their purpose. Her framework for courageous leaders is based on four pillars:

  • The courage to be authentically you
  • The courage to say what needs to be said
  • The courage to trust your leadership legacy
  • The courage to be bold and create the extraordinary

Takeaways from Dan and Pia

  • Pressure and stress can drive us to isolate, when what we need to do is come together.
  • Burnout can lead us to find ways to distract ourselves from the fact we’re burned out.
  • Connecting and asking for help is difficult, so we tend to revert to more task-orientated work.
  • Team leaders need to use more active collaboration tools.
