The Courageous Conversation Check

Are you ready for the conversation you keep putting off?

Part of the Courageous Conversations Framework

Welcome

That conversation you keep postponing until "the right time."

The one that lingers in meetings, follows you home, and wakes you up at 2 AM.

You are not avoiding it because you are weak. You are avoiding it because you are human.

After coaching many leaders through high-stakes conversations, I have seen this pattern again and again: the cost of silence almost always exceeds the cost of courage. But courage without preparation? That's where conversations go wrong.

This assessment is your starting point. It will help you see:

• where you are already steady

• where you may need more preparation

• what could most affect the conversation if left unchecked

When you finish, you will receive your results and be invited to continue to the Courageous Conversations Field Guide.

I may use combined, anonymized patterns (say, common trends by role) in future writing, talks, or teaching, but never anything that identifies you. It’s voluntary. You can stop any time. Questions?
