    About this audiobook

    There comes a time for every leader when they need to step up and navigate challenging situations. But what many people don’t realize is that these challenging times are precisely when your skills will grow. Of course, that doesn’t necessarily make it easier — we need to learn to leverage the power of difficult situations to help us become more courageous, successful leaders.

    In Courage and Crucibles: Leadership in Challenging Times, an audio course from Scribd Coach, leadership coach, speaker, and author Pierre Quinn explains how to do just that. In the course, Quinn explains how to leverage the power of the “crucible,” or challenging period; what opportunities and insights our crucibles reveal to us; and practical steps you can take to become a more courageous leader. He also shares exercises along the way to help you put what you’ve learned into practice.

    It takes courage to lead others through challenging times. Quinn’s insights will help you find that courage.
