I believe I discovered Rene Brown because “Dare to Lead” was between discounted books in the Kindle Monthly deal. Vulnerability and leadership Illustration from the book “No hard feelings” by Liz Fosslien and Mollie West Duffy Liz & Mollie, instead of the concept “whole” are proposing to bring “best” what doesn’t restrict us to bring more personality and more emotions to work, but also more realistically describe what we naturally tend to do. So even though that phrase about bringing whole myself sounded inspiring, it wasn’t realistic. However, it wasn’t so much true, as when I was in the dark mood, I wasn’t bringing this to work or share with anyone, but rather shutting up, and at most sharing, that not everything is ok. It was great, at least it may look like this. It affected me so much, just reading this phrase that I continuously decided to change how much I communicate at my everyday work, and next time I will be having doubts should I share something with my mates or post props in the channel, I just went for it. I remember myself when I first read this intriguing phrase about bring my whole self to work (can’t quite recall in which book it was). Bring to the work the best self instead of the whole self. I would love to share with you some of my findings. I personally experience a few “Aha” moments while reading it, when I finally found connections between dots, that I had in my understanding before, or finally got answers to the questions that were in my head for months. At the same time, I would say this a great book-connector. It provides excellent coverage of this theme, often bringing ideas from this book (with references) in the shorter format. It is the book that you will suggest to read if folk doesn’t have time or courage to read all the classic in this area, like “ Radical candor,” “ Dare to Lead,” “ The cultural map,” etc. Topics selection was well done, and promised illustrations were hilarious and, at the same time, insightful. I read it in 1 weekend and would say I enjoyed it a lot. The title already sounded promising, but after hearing that this book is also was wonderfully illustrated, I was sold. I saw this book in the twitter feed of one of my friend Anna.
