Fear & Leadership in the Mountains
How many times have we been told the story of the fearless leader? When the stakes are high, it feels natural to place our confidence in strength and certainty. But this is the story of a sometimes fearful leader who is listening to what fear has to teach us in the mountains.

Show Notes
How many times have we been told the story of the fearless leader — in work, in politics, in the mountains? When the stakes are high, it’s natural to place our confidence in strength and certainty. To turn to the leader and believe that they have no doubt, that they've built up a kind of resilience that will carry us all to safety.
Today’s episode isn’t about how to become a fearless leader in the mountains. Nor is it about how to overcome your fear, or even how to harness it. But it is about listening to what fear is trying to teach us. It’s an opportunity to consider what kind of leader you need, as well as the one you might want to be.
Lindsey Falkenburg shares the story of her season as a lead for BOEALPS, a mountaineering club in Seattle.
