What makes some leaders so effective when the stakes are high, while others fall short? Why are some able to not only survive but to lead their organizations to new heights even in risky, fastchanging times? The answer is succinct but multilayered: such leaders display courage, judgment, and fortitude.Highstakes leadership does not require unnatural powers, nor is it predicated on a dangerous situation. The three signature character traits can be cultivated by anyone at any level in any organization, big or small. Organizational and leadership consultant Constance Dierickx describes highstakes leadership in a simple, threepart model that illuminates the mindsets, strategies, and tactics leaders must draw upon to make tough decisions, take an unpopular stand, or ignore convention, providing realworld examples across a range of sectors and industries.Dierickx developed her model of highstakes leadership to help her clientsexecutives at organizations ranging from startups to nonprofits to large, global companiesbetter define what they need to bring strategy to life. This, she found, is the great gulf in business, the vast space between idea and results. HighStakes Leadership helps leaders sharpen their ability to:act decisively, with clarity and focustest ideas using reason, and course correct as neededbe resolute and inspire others to continue, even in the face of challengesLeading requires the courage to make conscious decisions about what to do, the judgment to separate information from shortterm trends, and the fortitude to remain true to oneself and ones mission. When leaders do these things, they also become teachers, leading their teams by example, often without realizing it. The essential aspects of good leadership endure even as the environment and tactics change. Indeed, courage, judgment, and fortitude are not merely tools for survival, they are the means by which we sculpt the future.
