Time: 10–11 a.m. MT / 6–7 p.m. CET

The Leadership Circle Profile is rich, dynamic—and, let’s be honest, sometimes a little overwhelming. Its power lies in its depth and interconnectedness, which can be challenging to navigate, even for seasoned coaches and leaders.

That’s why we created Surfacing Creative Leadership: a webinar series (and more!) designed to slow down and dig deep—one dimension at a time. Each session builds confidence, sparks insight, and returns us to the LCP’s core purpose: igniting transformational conversations.

In this session, we’ll explore the Courageous Authenticity dimension with Leadership Circle expert coaches Carolina Paez, Maria Becerro, and Zana Goic Petricevic.

We’ll explore how this dimension reflects a leader’s capacity to speak up with candor, act with integrity, and engage in the tough conversations that build real trust. Courageous Authenticity calls us to be both truthful and compassionate—to say what needs to be said in service of something greater. When grounded in purpose rather than ego, it strengthens relationships, deepens alignment, and transforms cultures from polite avoidance to genuine connection.

What To Expect

In this 60-minute, interactive conversation, you’ll:

  • Deepen your understanding of the Courageous Authenticity dimension and its key indicators.
  • Explore how this dimension fits within the broader LCP framework and connects to other dimensions.
  • Hear seasoned LCP coaches share how they approach debriefs and coaching sessions when this dimension is prominent.
  • Learn powerful coaching questions and techniques to help leaders speak truth with compassion, navigate hard conversations, and build trust through honesty and openness.
  • Engage in an open Q&A and add your voice to the conversation.
