NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - In hardcover for the first time, this tenth-anniversary edition of the game-changing #1 New York Times bestseller features a new foreword and brand-new tools to make the work your own. Don't miss the five-part HBO Max docuseries Bren Brown: Atlas of the Heart For over a decade, Bren Brown has found a special place in our hearts as a gifted mapmaker and a fellow traveler. She is both a social scientist and a kitchen-table friend whom you can always count on to tell the truth, make you laugh, and, on occasion, cry with you. And what's now become a movement all started with The Gifts of Imperfection, which has sold more than two million copies in thirty-five different languages across the globe. What transforms this book from words on a page to effective daily practices are the ten guideposts to wholehearted living. The guideposts not only help us understand the practices that will allow us to change our lives and families, they also walk us through the unattainable and sabotaging expectations that get in the way. Bren writes, "This book is an invitation to join a wholehearted revolution. A small, quiet, grassroots movement that starts with each of us saying, 'My story matters because I matter.' Revolution might sound a little dramatic, but in this world, choosing authenticity and worthiness is an absolute act of resistance."

Elämä ei aina ole helppoa, ja lähes kaikki joutuvat joskus kokemaan täydellisen romahduksen. Tämä kirja näyttää, miten pääsee takaisin jaloilleen sen jälkeen, kun tuntuu siltä, että mistään ei tule enää mitään, ja miten kompuroimisen voi välttää tulevaisuudessa. Brene Brown on haastatellut kirjaa varten lukuisia ihmisiä yritysjohtajista taiteilijoihin, opettajista vanhempiin. Heidän elämätarinansa auttaa ymmärtämään, mitä on tärkeintä silloin, kun matto vedetään jalkojen alta: kaikkia näitä ongelmansa selättäneitä ihmisiä yhdistää se, että he luottavat omiin tunteisiinsa ja uskaltavat mennä epämukavuusalueelleen. Brene Brown on huippusuosittu yhdysvaltalainen kirjailija ja Houstonin yliopiston professori. Brown tunnetaan haavoittuvuuden, rohkeuden, merkityksellisyyden ja häpeän tarkkanäköisenä tutkijana. Viisas elämä on julkaissut Brownilta aiemmin teokset En olekaan yksin, Uskalla haavoittua, Epätäydellisyyden lahjat ja Rohkaiseva Johtaja.

Teos opastaa siihen, mitä rohkea johtajuus on ja kuinka se otetaan. Kirjoittajan mukaan johtaja on jokainen, joka ottaa vastuun ja tunnistaa ihmisten ja ideoiden mahdollisuudet, ja jolla on rohkeutta kehittää tätä potentiaalia. Kun uskallamme johtaa, emme väitä tietävämme oikeita vastauksia, vaan osaamme kysyä oikeat kysymykset. Emme välttele hankaliakaan keskusteluja ja tilanteita, vaan uskallamme olla haavoittuvia päästäksemme kohti parempaa. Brown esittää tutkimusten, tarinoiden ja esimerkkien kautta, miten kasvattaa rohkeampia ja välittävämpiä johtajia ja miten nostaa rohkeus arvoonsa. Brownin mukaan rohkea johtajuus on joukko taitoja, jotka ovat opetettavissa, havaittavissa ja mitattavissa. Se vaatii rohkeaa työtä, tiukkoja keskusteluja ja täyttä sydäntä. Teos on tarkoitettu kaikille, jotka haluavat kehittyä rohkeiksi johtajiksi. Brene Brown on yhdysvaltalainen sosiaalityön tutkimusprofessori, sosiaalityöntekijä ja suosittu tietokirjailija. Hän on tutkinut ihmisten haavoittuvuutta, rohkeutta, omanarvontuntoa ja häpeää.

Bren Brown argumenta que estamos experimentando una crisis espiritual de desconexi n e introduce cuatro pr cticas de pertenencia verdadera que desaf an todo lo que creemos sobre nosotros mismos y entre nosotros. Ella escribe: "La verdadera pertenencia requiere que creamos y pertenezcamos a nosotros mismos tan completamente que podamos encontrar la santidad tanto en ser parte de algo como en estar solos cuando sea necesario.

It requires us to be who we are." Social scientist Bren Brown, PhD, LMSW, has sparked a global conversation about the experiences that bring meaning to our lives--experiences of courage, vulnerability, love, belonging, shame, and empathy. In Braving the Wilderness, Brown redefines what it means to truly belong in an age of increased polarization. With her trademark mix of research, storytelling, and honesty, Brown will again change the cultural conversation while mapping a clear path to true belonging.

Vi har brug for ledere med en stærk ryg, en åben front og et vildt hjerte. Vores tid kalder på modige ledere, der tør tage livtag med sårbarheden, udleve deres værdier, styrke tilliden og rejse sig stærkt igen efter nederlag. I Mod til at lede viser psykolog og forsker Brené Brown, at ledelse ikke handler om titler, status eller magt – det handler om modet til at se og udvikle potentialet i andre. Det kræver modige organisationer, der med tydelighed og ærlighed udvikler ledere, der leder gennem menneskelige relationer og empati. Dristige ledere med selvindsigt, der knytter bånd til de mennesker, de er ledere for. Med Brené Browns ord: ledere med en stærk ryg, en åben front og et vildt hjerte. Vil du være med i en ledelsesrevolution? Mod smitter. Med Mod til at lede har Brené Brown startet en verdensomspændende debat om, hvordan vi lægger ledelsesflosklerne bag os og leder med mod, hjerte og integritet. Bogen er til dig, der tør trodse usikkerheden og ønsker at gøre en forskel gennem ledelse – sammen med andre. "Jeg har altid ment, at i en verden fuld af kritikere, kynikere og frygtspredere er det en revolutionerende handling at smide rustningen og tage livtag med sårbarheden, udleve sine værdier, dyrke tilliden med et åbent hjerte og lære at komme stærkt igen for at genvinde retten til at skrive sin egen historie. Mod er oprør. [Citat fra bogen] Om forfatterenBRENÉ BROWN forsker og underviser på University of Houston, hvor hun takket være Huffington Foundation har sit eget professorat på Graduate College of Social Work.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - REESE'S BOOK CLUB PICK - A timely and important book that challenges everything we think we know about cultivating true belonging in our communities, organizations, and culture, from the #1 bestselling author of Rising Strong, Daring Greatly, and The Gifts of ImperfectionDon't miss the five-part Max docuseries Bren Brown: Atlas of the Heart "True belonging doesn't require us to change who we are. It requires us to be who we are." Social scientist Bren Brown, PhD, MSW, has sparked a global conversation about the experiences that bring meaning to our lives--experiences of courage, vulnerability, love, belonging, shame, and empathy. In Braving the Wilderness, Brown redefines what it means to truly belong in an age of increased polarization. With her trademark mix of research, storytelling, and honesty, Brown will again change the cultural conversation while mapping a clear path to true belonging. Brown argues that we're experiencing a spiritual crisis of disconnection, and introduces four practices of true belonging that challenge everything we believe about ourselves and each other. She writes, "True belonging requires us to believe in and belong to ourselves so fully that we can find sacredness both in being a part of something and in standing alone when necessary. But in a culture that's rife with perfectionism and pleasing, and with the erosion of civility, it's easy to stay quiet, hide in our ideological bunkers, or fit in rather than show up as our true selves and brave the wilderness of uncertainty and criticism. But true belonging is not something we negotiate or accomplish with others; it's a daily practice that demands integrity and authenticity. It's a personal commitment that we carry in our hearts." Brown offers us the clarity and courage we need to find our way back to ourselves and to each other. And that path cuts right through the wilderness. Brown writes, "The wilderness is an untamed, unpredictable place of solitude and searching. It is a place as dangerous as it is breathtaking, a place as sought after as it is feared. But it turns out to be the place of true belonging, and it's the bravest and most sacred place you will ever stand."

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - Bren Brown has taught us what it means to dare greatly, rise strong, and brave the wilderness. Now, based on new research conducted with leaders, change makers, and culture shifters, she's showing us how to put those ideas into practice so we can step up and lead. Don't miss the five-part Max docuseries Bren Brown: Atlas of the Heart ONE OF BLOOMBERG'S BEST BOOKS OF THE YEARLeadership is not about titles, status, and wielding power. A leader is anyone who takes responsibility for recognizing the potential in people and ideas, and has the courage to develop that potential. When we dare to lead, we don't pretend to have the right answers; we stay curious and ask the right questions. We don't see power as finite and hoard it; we know that power becomes infinite when we share it with others. We don't avoid difficult conversations and situations; we lean into vulnerability when it's necessary to do good work. But daring leadership in a culture defined by scarcity, fear, and uncertainty requires skill-building around traits that are deeply and uniquely human. The irony is that we're choosing not to invest in developing the hearts and minds of leaders at the exact same time as we're scrambling to figure out what we have to offer that machines and AI can't do better and faster. What can we do better? Empathy, connection, and courage, to start. Four-time #1 New York Times bestselling author Bren Brown has spent the past two decades studying the emotions and experiences that give meaning to our lives, and the past seven years working with transformative leaders and teams spanning the globe. She found that leaders in organizations ranging from small entrepreneurial startups and family-owned businesses to nonprofits, civic organizations, and Fortune 50 companies all ask the same question: How do you cultivate braver, more daring leaders, and how do you embed the value of courage in your culture? In Dare to Lead, Brown uses research, stories, and examples to answer these questions in the no-BS style that millions of readers have come to expect and love. Brown writes, "One of the most important findings of my career is that daring leadership is a collection of four skill sets that are 100 percent teachable, observable, and measurable. It's learning and unlearning that requires brave work, tough conversations, and showing up with your whole heart. Easy? No. Because choosing courage over comfort is not always our default. Worth it? Always. We want to be brave with our lives and our work. It's why we're here." Whether you've read Daring Greatly and Rising Strong or you're new to Bren Brown's work, this book is for anyone who wants to step up and into brave leadership.

OM VEKSELVIRKNINGEN MELLEM MOD OG FRYGT, STYRKE OG SVAGHED, ENSOMHED OG SAMHØRIGHED,OVERFLADE OG DYBDE. Det moderne livs vrimmel trækker os væk fra hinanden og det fælles. Af frygt for at stå helt alene – ensomme og sårbare – tør vi ikke vise vores sande ansigt. Brené Brown opfordrer os til at gå den modsatte vej: Vi skal rykke tættere sammen og stå ved os selv. Bruge tid sammen med mennesker, der ikke er som os. Lytte, deltage i de svære samtaler, opsøge glæden og være nysgerrige i stedet for at låse os fast i forsvarsposition. Det kræver mod og tillid. Vi må turde holde fast i egne overbevisninger uden at grave grøfter og lære at være til stede over for andre uden at glemme os selv. Det kan indimellem føles som at stå alene i vildmarken. Brené Brown fortæller en til tider dybt personlig historie om at lære at stå fast og være tro mod sig selv. Om at indse, at man hører til alle steder og ingen steder. Og om undervejs at opdage styrken i fællesskabet. Budskabet er, at vi kan finde modet til at bevæge os ud i vildmarken og stå der som dem, vi er.

Spirituality—How It Makes Us Stronger With her previous bestsellers, Dr. Brené Brown helped us realize that vulnerability is the birthplace for trust, courage, joy, creativity, and love. Yet a willingness to be vulnerable means accepting that life will sometimes knock us down. Where do we find the strength to get back up? In her research on resilient people, Brené discovered a key factor. "Without exception," she says, "the concept of spirituality emerged from the data as a critical component of resilience and overcoming struggle." On Rising Strong as a Spiritual Practice, Brené offers an in-depth exploration of this key aspect of wholehearted living, including: • The spiritual dimension of the Rising Strong process: the Reckoning, the Rumble, and the Revolution • A sense of belonging—how spirituality encourages us to be ourselves instead of trying to change in order to fit in • Why the sense of perspective provided by a spiritual practice helps us find meaning and purpose • "Are we doing the best we can?"—How faith in humanity can help us become more compassionate and less judgmental • Why the spiritual understanding of death and rebirth are invaluable in the process of forgiveness On Rising Strong as a Spiritual Practice, Brené defines spirituality as something not reliant on religion, theology, or dogma—rather, it is a belief in our interconnectedness and in a loving force greater than ourselves. Whether you access the sacred through traditional worship, solitary meditation, communion with nature, or creative pursuits, one thing is clear: cultivating your own approach to spirituality gives you an irreplaceable resource to help you persevere through hard times and arise stronger and wiser than before.
