Sometimes being courageous is not about doing something different, but rather about revealing something about yourself you have previously felt you had to keep hidden. By keeping up appearances, portraying a shinier image of yourself than you feel inside, you gradually close yourself off from others and reduce their trust in you. This episode covers the courage that it takes to show some vulnerability. Buy the Walking the Talk book: <a href="https://amzn.to/3WunDBA">https://amzn.to/3WunDBA</a> Buy Accountability@Work book: <a href="https://amzn.to/3ZmOSQB">https://amzn.to/3ZmOSQB</a> Website: <a href="https://www.carolyntaylorculture.com/">www.carolyntaylorculture.com</a> Podcast: <a href="https://www.carolyntaylorculture.com/podcast">www.carolyntaylorculture.com/podcast</a> Walking the Talk: <a href="https://walkingthetalk.com/">www.walkingthetalk.com</a>

15: Courage series - Speaking from the heart - Why would you bother?

This podcast is about leadership, authenticity and courage. Every episode is a personal development experience showing you how you can transform yourself and thus transform those around you and ultimately the organisation within which you work. Take a stand, choose a value - accountability, one-team, customer-centric, and many more - and come away with insights and practical tips on what it takes to authentically live that day-to-day. Many people and organisations hold these values, but don’t practise them. Through this podcast you will close that gap and as a result earn higher trust from your clients and colleagues, because they see you walking your talk.
