Strong Ground examines the capabilities leaders need to navigate uncertainty, organisational transformation, and rapid technological change. Drawing on Brené Brown's research and the experience gained through the Dare to Lead programme, the book explores courage, accountability, trust, and human connection as essential foundations of effective leadership. It discusses practical skills such as engaging in difficult conversations, embracing paradoxical thinking, prioritising strategically, managing risk, and developing the ability to unlearn and relearn. Combining research findings, real-world leadership experiences, and insights from recognised experts, the book provides a practical framework for building resilient organisations and leading with confidence, adaptability, and integrity in complex environments.
