The following is an excerpt from the intro to the Courage Way by Shelly Francis. Sigrid’s car flipped over dense chaparral and poison oak, rolling 120 feet until it landed upside down in a tree.

Guest post by Lisa Sasso : Soft skills can make or break you as a leader; they are clearly more important to a leader than any hard skill. This is a basic truth I learned early on in my business career, and it has sustained me throughout a succession of leadership roles — right up to my present work as an executive coach. I first became aware of the need for soft skills when I was a Tupperware Executive Manager, teaching members of my team about the products, how to best present the line and exp

Recently, I interviewed my friend Dan Levitan, venture capitalist and managing partner of Maveron. I’ve enjoyed working with Dan over the last few years not just because Dan is a great person and leader, but also because, Dan is very different than most of my other clients. Most of my clients are in big corporations or large non-profits so what I learn from them is based on their perspectives as leaders of large organizations.

I frequently receive questions I can’t easily answer. Usually the questions involve a dilemma someone is facing, which has no direct and easy answer. The exact answer is not clearly spelled out in the Bible. I’m left to my own wisdom, which I may or may not have about the situation. The person who has to decide whether to risk losing a friendship to do something they feel is the right thing, but their friend disagrees.

One of my coaching clients is Dan Levitan, managing partner of the venture capital firm Maveron. Dan is different that most of my coaching clients who are mostly leaders of big corporations. I’ve learned a lot from coaching Dan, including the importance of taking risks. Many of us have been brought up to never fail. We are taught to believe that failure is bad!

miragec/Getty Images. Top leaders tend to focus more on status updates than on contingency planning. They devote far more time to internal execution and competitive risks than to external risks that can change the playing field. This means that many emerging market risks get cut from the senior leadership agenda. At Frontier Strategy Group, we observed that in 2017, executives and boards paid the most attention to risks that dominated global headlines: Brexit, the Trump administration’s tr
