When we’re buried in our todo lists, we can lack the courage to take bolder choices. Amy Riley discovered this first-hand through her work helping leaders become more courageous.

Amy is an international best-selling author and keynote speaker who helps leaders fully step into their purpose. Her framework for courageous leaders is based on four pillars:

• The courage to be authentically you
• The courage to say what needs to be said
• The courage to trust your leadership legacy
• The courage to be bold and create the extraordinary

Takeaways from Dan and Pia

• Pressure and stress can drive us to isolate, when what we need to do is come together.
• Burnout can lead us to find ways to distract ourselves from the fact we’re burned out.
• Connecting and asking for help is difficult, so we tend to revert to more task-orientated work.
• Team leaders need to use more active collaboration tools.
