About the Dare to Lead™ Program

Based on the research of Dr. Brené Brown, Dare to Lead™ is an empirically based courage-building program designed to be facilitated by organizational development professionals. 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 finding from Brené’s recent research is that courage is a collection of four skill sets that are teachable, measurable, and observable.

NOTE: Brené will not be at this training, however she has created a series of signature videos to support this learning experience. Our Dare to Lead™ program is crafted so that it feels like Diane is co-facilitating with Brené. You’ll have special access to her research and teachings through this curated collection of Dare to Lead™-specific training videos. The videos are private to the Dare to Lead™ community, and are not available in the public domain.

If you have any questions or concerns, please get in touch with us. We’d be so happy to connect.

Inspired Results Group is proud to be the training partner of choice for values-based organizations who want inclusive leadership.
