Sisu Courage Tag

I often use positive “C” words in leadership development when coaching executive leaders. For example, in Millennials Matter: Proven Strategies for Building Your Next-Gen Leader, I have 3 sections:
    • Character,
    • Confidence, and
    • Connection.
For this SISU Courage series, I’m using the same structure. Yet, “C” words aren’t always positive!

We often learn leadership development lessons in the most surprising ways – and in the most peculiar places! While cleaning some old files, I came across this photo of my great-grandparents. It took grit, determination, and mental toughness to live in North Dakota in the early 1900s, didn't it? Then, I start to think about my own childhood journey.
