We are excited to present our newest 4-part mini-series, Courageous Women Leaders, featuring high-performance consultant Poppy Griffiths.  Tune in as we engage in insightful conversations around these four key subjects: Tapping into self-awareness and strengths for success The power of vulnerability to show up as our best selves  Using empathy for A+ leadership  Building Resilience to bounce back from setback In today's episode, we discuss the concept of courageous leadership with Poppy, who believes that everyone has the potential to be a leader regardless of their gender, job role, or career path. We explore how anyone can develop the courage to find their potential and positively impact their own lives and the lives of others. Some key points from today's conversation:  We are all leaders with unique talents that we can use to make positive contributions in our families, communities, and organisations. Courageous leadership is about taking responsibility for finding potential in ourselves and others, and having the courage to develop it in any situation, even when we can't control or predict the outcome. Doubts and fears are a natural part of being human, but they can fuel negative thoughts and limit our ability to make a positive impact.
