You were not meant to stay small.  You were called to be a leader, you were meant to make a difference.  Choosing to grow as a leader means choosing to practice courage over being comfortable. Learn what it means to be a brave leader,  why we have to do the vulnerable work and become courageous to be a leader worth following. 

Steph Williamson  will be introducing us to Dr. Brené Brown’s latest research.The most significant finding is that courage is a collection of four skill sets that are teachable, measurable, and observable. These skills can be applied to careers, entrepreneurial businesses, community leaders, and everywhere in life.

During breakfast we will learn an overview of the Courage Building Skill sets: 

• Rumbling with Vulnerability 
• Living into our Values
• BRAVING Trust
• Learning to Rise

We’ll discuss why they are important, how they create in your life and business, and what you can start practicing right now.  

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 Brown has spent the past two decades studying courage, vulnerability, shame, and empathy, and most recently completed a seven-year study on courageous leadership. And our very own Steph Williamson is certified to bring us this research and these teachings.

Join Heather Simpson and an incredible group of women, that are coming together for a different type of "networking" group. If you joined us for any of our other events, then you know this is a group that you can truly connect with. A group that won't be trying to sell you from the moment they meet you. A group committed and devoted to building each other up and supporting each other.  

We ask that you keep your business cards tucked away, and show up in real, genuine, authentic conversation. We are there without personal agendas or sales quotas. We are there to truly do what we do best; be relational.
