Have you ever dealt with a leader who took on death-march assignments causing you to put in 80-hour work-weeks to meet the deadline? Or maybe worked with someone who was so politically motivated that you couldn’t trust her? Or how about a manager who practiced “management by threats”? If any of these scenarios strikes a chord with your leadership style, then you need to listen to Courage – Predictability = Recklessness by internationally known leadership and project management expert Lonnie Pacelli.

Lonnie provides thought-provoking leadership lessons on how to be predictably courageous to boost your credibility with team members, customers, and business partners. Get some helpful tips on how to enhance your predictability as a leader through:


  1. Clearly communicating your beliefs

  2. Thinking through and establishing your guiding principles

  3. Keeping your emotions in check when the heat is on

  4. Not becoming passionately anchored to a solution

  5. Using “time-outs”.

Anyone can be an Evel Knievel Leader; one who proceeds with reckless abandon without regard as to how the challenge affects him or others. Being a courageous leader means you must be predictable and steadfast in your beliefs and actions so those around you can better trust you. Listen to Lonnie’s practical, no-nonsense take-aways to help you be a courageously predictable leader and avoid being labeled as a reckless thrill-seeker.
