The three buckets of courage
There are three main types of courage when it comes to courageous leadership in the workplace:
- Try courage: the courage required to take the first step in something. You might fail, you might get it wrong, or you might do something completely incredible.
- Trust courage: the type of courage required to relinquish control. As a leader, you will need this courage in order to delegate to your employees, to give over control to staff, and to show your team that you trust them.
- Tell courage: the courage you need to speak openly and with conviction about your beliefs and ideas.
