Imagine a work environment where being a brave leader is the norm:

...Where the workforce is empowered to trust their intuition and stand up for it.
...Where managers have the humility to give their teams a listening ear.
...Where employees at all levels feel the freedom to sound the alert when things go wrong.

A work environment like this benefits from the collective wisdom and talents of the entire workforce, rather than only a few top managers. Creativity flourishes. Mistakes are identified early; their costs kept to a minimum. The organization thrives, and so does the workforce, leading to lower absenteeism and employee turnover. People are happy — and the bottom line follows suit.

This is the kind of work environment we envision at The Brave Leaders Project. With our Brave Leaders Training, we empower organizations to take a step in this direction.

We offer The Brave Leaders Training as an inspiring keynote presentation, a hands-on workshop, or a series of private coaching sessions. Each draws on the lessons from some of the world’s bravest leaders. Inspiring and thought-provoking, all formats feature the following elements:

• The stories of brave leaders from around the world, who describe what courage looks like in real life.

• Reflective exercises to help the audience draw insights and make connections to their own professional journey.

• The creation of a set of personalized action steps for delivering positive change in your organization, workplace, or industry.

The training is led by Brave Leaders co-author, keynote speaker, and experienced executive coach, Jeanne Westervelt Rice. Jeanne has worked with hundreds of business leaders to refine their skills in leadership communication, public speaking, and executive presence. She is an expert at teaching people to cultivate the courage to lead, motivate their teams, and inspire others to take action.
