As leaders, we’ve all been faced with challenging and uncertain times that leave us afraid and uncertain of the action to take. Courageous leadership means taking action in the presence of your doubts and fears, not in the absence of them.

How then do you build a habit of courageous leadership? We all have courage inside of us, and it’s all about intentionally seeking opportunities that challenge us to exercise the courage and grow and speed up our decision-making timeframe.

In this episode of the She Leads Now podcast, I share some of my courageous action moments, and provide tips and strategies for building your own habit of courageous action, and strengthening your leadership and decision-making ability.

Key Takeaways:
  • How we act courageously in the presence of doubts, insecurities, and fears.
  • How as leaders we’re challenged daily with opportunities to cower or to show up courageously.
  • Start challenging yourself to seek out opportunities to exercise your courage.
  • Take a step back during uncertain times and recall similar times to gain the courage to overcome and grow.
  • How to consistently build the habit of courageous leadership to shorten your courageous action timeframe.
