BSP 036: Fearless Leadership by Carey Lohrenz

Carey Lohrenz, author of Fearless Leadership: High-Performance
Lessons from the Flight Deck, was one of the first women to fly
fighter jets on and off aircraft carriers for the U.S. Navy. Her
book was inspired by her experiences on the flight deck, working
with a team full of high performers in volatile conditions where
situations are ever-changing and how all of these factors helped to
shape how people think about leadership and to identify what worked
and what didn’t. Lohrenz talked about the “secret sauce” that
defines fearless leadership and how it can be applied to Fortune
100 company executives. She talks about what fearless leadership
looks like on an individual level and how executives can instill
those same values on their teams. Lohrenz also adds the biggest
difference between those who are successful and those able to take
it to the next level, is their ability to work through their fears.
 She urges everyone to constantly push their limits – to do
one thing every day that scares you because that’s how you grow.
