Leadership is not about titles, status, and wielding power. A leader is anyone who takes responsibility for recognizing the potential in people and ideas, and has the courage to develop that potential.

Leadership is not about titles, status, and wielding power. A leader is anyone who takes responsibility for recognizing the potential in people and ideas, and has the courage to develop that potential.
When we dare to lead, we don’t pretend to have the right answers; we stay curious and ask the right questions. We don’t see power as finite and hoard it; we know that power becomes infinite when we share it with others. We don’t avoid difficult conversations and situations; we lean into vulnerability when it’s necessary to do good work.
But daring leadership in a culture defined by scarcity, fear, and uncertainty requires skill-building around traits that are deeply and uniquely human. The irony is that we’re choosing not to invest in developing the hearts and minds of leaders at the exact same time as we’re scrambling to figure out what we have to offer that machines and AI can’t do better and faster. What can we do better? Empathy, connection, and courage, to start.
Four-time #1 New York Times bestselling author Brené Brown has spent the past two decades studying the emotions and experiences that give meaning to our lives, and the past seven years working with transformative leaders and teams spanning the globe. She found that leaders in organizations ranging from small entrepreneurial startups and family-owned businesses to nonprofits, civic organizations, and Fortune 50 companies all ask the same question:
How do you cultivate braver, more daring leaders, and how do you embed the value of courage in your culture?
In this new book, Brown uses research, stories, and examples to answer these questions in the no-BS style that millions of readers have come to expect and love.
Brown writes, “One of the most important findings of my career is that daring leadership is a collection of four skill sets that are 100 percent teachable, observable, and measurable. It’s learning and unlearning that requires brave work, tough conversations, and showing up with your whole heart. Easy? No. Because choosing courage over comfort is not always our default. Worth it? Always. We want to be brave with our lives and our work. It’s why we’re here.”
Whether you’ve read Daring Greatly and Rising Strong or you’re new to Brené Brown’s work, this book is for anyone who wants to step up and into brave leadership.

原文摘录 · · · · · ·
If you're criticizing from a place where you're not also putting your self on the line, Im not interested in what you have to say. (查看原文)
Again, if we shield ourselves from all feedback, we stop growing. If we engage with all feedback, regardless of the quality and intention, it hurts too much, and we will ultimately armor up by pretending it doesn't hurt, or, worse yet, we ll disconnect from vulnerability and emotion so fully that we stop feeling hurt. When we get to the place that the armor is so thick that we no longer feel anything, we experience a real death. Weve paid for self- protection by sealing off our heart from everyone, and from everything-not just hurt, but love. (查看原文)

trust are built in small moments: sliding door moment. do not choose to turn away
trust and vulnerability grow together
what does supporting behavior look like? ask this question. people are better at describe what it does not look like. this helps paint a picture. But also, makes people accountable to seek support. There are times people get resentful for not getting support, when not asking for it.
"tell me more". context matters.
vulnerability is not a tool to be used to seek sympathy. proceed with caution. vulnerability without boundary is not proper.
#True belonging True belonging is the spiritual practice of believing in and belonging to yourself so deeply that you can share your most Authentic self with the world and find sacredness in both being a part of something and standing alone in the wilderness. True belonging doesn’t require you to Change who you are ; it requires you to Be who you are

放下自我保护，展现给同事、下属自己脆弱不行的地方需要勇气，更需要掌握好其中的度。若能灵活运用这种领导方式，整个工作氛围会截然不同。

很多实用的对话可以引用。但是有些纠结实在不必。be brave and be vulnerable 其实是作为一个温暖的人核心的力量。就算不用在leadership 也很强大。其实她的ted talk 更好。
