Fearless Friday, issue 14

Photo courtsey of KOREPhotos.

In this special series, we’ll take a brief look at various different fearless inspirations from the past week or so. Whether it’s a fearless young change maker who is taking risks, a new publication that expresses bold and innovative ideas, or an organization that is promoting change and that is not afraid to fail forward—we want to shine a spotlight on them and their work in the hope that it will spark a new movement to Be Fearless.

As Jean Case, CEO of the Case Foundation says, “The old way of doing things is simply no longer effective in this new world. It’s time for us all to take risks on new ideas, approaches, and initiatives. It’s time for us to be bold, to act with urgency, and to resist the tendency to let caution be our guide. It’s time for us to Be Fearless.” Will you join us?

You’ve checked out the core elements of the campaign on the Be Fearless website, you’ve read the report, To Be Fearless that provides a detailed start to the conversation around the campaign, and perhaps you’ve shared the information with others via social media– so now what?
