Dare to Lead: Brave Work. Tough Conversations. Whole Hearts
by Brené Brown (Author)
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.

Extreme Ownership: How U.S. Navy SEALs Lead and Win
by Jocko Willink (Author)
Combat, the most intense and dynamic environment imaginable, teaches the toughest leadership
lessons, with absolutely everything at stake. Jocko Willink and Leif Babin learned this reality first-
hand on the most violent and dangerous battlefield in Iraq. As leaders of SEAL Team Three’s Task
Unit Bruiser, their mission was one many thought impossible: help U.S. forces secure Ramadi, a
violent, insurgent-held city deemed “all but lost.” In gripping, firsthand accounts of heroism, tragic
loss, and hard-won victories, they learned that leadership―at every level―is the most important fac-
tor in whether a team succeeds or fails.

Willink and Babin returned home from deployment and instituted SEAL leadership training to pass
on their harsh lessons of self-discipline, mental toughness and self-defense learned in combat to
help forge the next generation of SEAL leaders. After leaving the SEAL Teams, they launched a company, Echelon Front,
to teach those same leadership principles to leaders in businesses, companies, and organizations across the civilian sector.
Since that time, they have trained countless leaders and worked with hundreds of companies in virtually every industry
across the U.S. and internationally, teaching them how to develop their own high-performance teams and most effectively
lead those teams to dominate their battlefields.
