On this episode of The Courage Hotline — The Courage To Make It Personal — I help a concerned team member recognize opportunities to courageously lead from where they are after expressing concern that their leaders aren’t leading.
I responds to a caller wondering if courageous workplace change can truly happen after a keynote, one I delivered to this caller’s organization. I offer a candid reminder that transformation doesn’t start at the top. It starts within. While keynotes can spark perspective shifts, real change happens when individuals take personal courageous action: speaking up, stepping up, and showing up in ways that inspire others to do the same. As I put it, courage can’t live only in the C-suite; it must live everywhere — in the middle, on the front lines, and inside each of us.
