Fear hides our greatest potential.

Paychecks can’t buy passion.

  • Gallup finds only 23% of people feel engaged, costing companies $7 trillion in lost productivity annually.

  • 44% of employees said they experience high levels of daily stress.

  • The majority of global workers are either ‘quiet quitting’ or ‘loudly quitting.’

  • 72% of employees admit to playing it safe, evading risks opportunity that could catalyze growth.

Courage connects and empowers.

  • Gallup reports that, when employees are engaged, organizations experience a boost in morale and increased profits. 

  • More courageous environments lead to enhanced productivity and a healthier workplace culture.

  • “Management can encourage, inspire and empower their employees, igniting passion through small changes.”
