You 2.0: Cultivating Courage

About this episode

<p>Why do some people act bravely in a crisis, while others flee or freeze up? Today, we bring you the second part of our You 2.0 series on the mental obstacles that can block us when we're charting a new path. Behavioral scientist <a href="https://www.hbs.edu/faculty/Pages/profile.aspx?facId=77265" rel="noopener noreferrer">Ranjay Gulati</a> argues that courage is a choice, and that we can strengthen the reflexes that will help us to be brave when it matters most. </p> <p><i>Once you've listened to this episode, be sure to check out our companion conversation about how you can help the people around you to become more brave.
