Dare to Lead™ | Auckland | 5-7 November 2025

Founded on the research of Dr. Brené Brown, Dare to Lead™ is an empirically based courage-building programme, delivered by Boma New Zealand CEO and Certified Dare to Lead™ Facilitator Kaila Colbin.

Brené has spent two decades studying shame and more than seven years specifically looking at leadership. During her research, she interviewed leaders from all over the world — from Fortune 100 companies, non-profits, public sector entities, and more — and asked one question: what is the future of leadership?

Remarkably, their answers pointed to one thing: we need braver leaders.

The most significant finding from Brené’s latest research, and the foundation of Dare to Lead™, is that courage is a collection of four skill sets that are teachable, measurable, and observable.

• Effectively navigate vulnerability and unlock change
• Turn values from fluffy language into tangible, practical behaviours
• Build a common culture of trust in your team
• Cultivate the skills to rise from setbacks and be more resilient

• Be better equipped to deal with difficult conversations
• Reduce unhealthy and unproductive behaviour
• Be more creative and innovative
• Build resilience and improve alignment
• Foster a culture of accountability and trust

• You're in a position of leadership within your organisation
• You see the potential in people and processes, and are willing to take responsibility for achieving that potential
• You’re passionate about accelerating performance in yourself and others
• You have to navigate organisational change as part of your role
