Brené Brown will write about leadership in a book coming later this year.
Random House will publish the social work professor and author’s Strong Ground: The Lessons of Daring Leadership, the Tenacity of Paradox, and the Wisdom of the Human Spirit in the fall, the press announced in a news release. In the book, Random House says, Brown “delivers practical, actionable insights that illuminate the mindsets and skill sets essential to reclaiming focus and driving growth through connection, discipline, and accountability.”
Brown first rose to national prominence after her 2010 TEDx Talk “The Power of Vulnerability” went viral. She went on to publish several bestselling books, including Daring Greatly, Rising Strong, and Braving the Wilderness. She is also the host of the popular podcasts Unlocking Us and Dare To Lead.
Her new book, Random House says, is “a vital playbook for everyone from senior leaders developing and executing complex strategies to Gen Z-ers entering and navigating turbulent work environments. It is also an unflinching assessment of what happens when we continue to perpetuate the falsehood that performance and wholeheartedness are mutually exclusive.”
In the book, Brown writes, “Individuals and organizations are building new muscles. Finding our strong ground—that athletic stance—is the only thing that can provide both unwavering stability in a maelstrom of uncertainty and a platform for the fast, explosive change that the world is demanding.”
Strong Ground is scheduled for publication on September 23.
