Embrace Paradox and Vulnerability

by David Meyer

Drawing on research from her Dare to Lead organization, Brown tells leaders how to strengthen their foundational skills.

Popular life advice author Brené Brown urges leaders to cultivate human connections, find courage in vulnerability, and view both paradox and ambiguity as aids to “deeper understanding.”

Brown holds the Huffington Foundation’s Endowed Chair (which is named after her) at the University of Houston’s Graduate College of Social Work. She is also the author of other New York Times bestsellers, including Atlas of the Heart, Daring Greatly, Imperfections, and Rising Strong.
