  “ _Brave Leadership_ clearly describes and convincingly prescribes a solution
  to a hidden crisis holding back far too many people: fear. The stories will
  keep you turning the page; the practical guidance will make you glad you did.
  A thoughtful, useful addition to the leadership literature.”
