Christmas is my favourite time of the year and I always love getting new books (well actually that's not just at Christmas). One book I'd highly recommend and one that truly transformed my perspective is:
(And it's not "How to Win Friends and Influence People")
→ "Dare to Lead" by Brené Brown
4 lessons I learned
👉🏼 1. Embrace Vulnerability.
- Being vulnerable doesn't mean being weak. It means having the courage to show up when you can't control the outcome.
👉🏼 2. The Value of Trust.
- Trust isn't built overnight. It's a series of small moments where integrity, accountability, and reliability are proven.
👉🏼 3. Self-awareness Leads to Empathy.
- Understanding our own emotions helps us empathise with others. This paves the way for stronger, more meaningful connections.
👉🏼4. Clear is Kind.
- Clear, honest feedback, even when uncomfortable, is kinder than vague, unhelpful criticism.
Learn these lessons → you'll become an exemplary leader.
