All About
Dare to Lead™

What are the costs of teams that cannot "level" with each other? Why do so many people struggle to say or hear hard things at work, crippling important decisions along the way?

Dare to Lead is a curriculum based on the research of Dr. Brené Brown, that teaches teams 4 skills behind brave, courageous cultures. Voted #1 in the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal and Publishers Weekly, Dare to Lead is an empirically based coaching experience for people looking to be brave in work and in life.

The Dare to Lead Experience

Facilitated by Brené Brown trained facilitators, this experience will aim to build four critical skills of courage at work:

1. Rumbling with vulnerability

2. Living into our values

3. Braving trust

4. Learning to rise

In this curriculum, we'll learn how to create the daring cultures and leadership we need to surge through the obstacles of business life today. Expected outcomes are to:

  • Gain insights around the real reasons for unhelpful dynamics on teams, and how to change them

  • Build skills around how to have awkward but kind conversations

  • Achieve mindsets that create creative momentum and guard against paralysis and fear

Red Maple’s trained facilitators take Dr. Brené Brown’s meaningful work and help apply it to your unique setting, building a space where vulnerability is celebrated, so growth can be achieved. We provide this for both teams within an organization and for individuals.
