Yeah.

This was research that emerged like 15 years ago, and I was really, really nervous because I'm a grounded theory researcher.

I'm a qualitative researcher.

So a grounded theory is only as good as its ability to work new data.

So you develop a hypothesis or a theory based on data.

And then as you collect more data, does the hypothesis hold?

And, you know, we collected that data pre-pandemic.

you know, pre a lot of things.

And so I was really worried about the four skill sets of courage, which are identifying and understanding your core values.

I would love to do this exercise with you sometime.

Two,

Understanding what gets in the way of you wrestling with vulnerability, kind of owning it and moving through it constructively.

Three, how to build trust and how to become, super important, trustworthy to yourself.

Self-trust.

Because one of the first casualties of failure or disappointment or setback is we lose our ability to trust ourselves.

our ability to make good decisions, our ability to take care of ourselves.

And the last one, which is my favorite, because it can really, I've seen it really change an organization is how to get back up after failure and disappointment, how to reset, how to be, how to manage your own bounce when hard shit happens.

So those are the four skill sets of courage.

Again, evidence-based, observable, measurable, and teachable.

We've taken 165,000 people through this work across 45 countries, collected data on all of it.
