=== II – Living into Our Values ===
🧭 '''6 – Living into Our Values.''' This chapter turns values from slogans into lived standards by asking you to identify your two core values and define the specific behaviors that reflect them when stakes are high. It then moves those behaviors into daily practice—using values to set boundaries, choose courage over comfort, and keep decisions consistent across work and home. Team tools like the List of Values and the Living Into Our Values exercise make commitments teachable, observable, and measurable. ''We can’t live into values we can’t name.''
=== III – Braving Trust ===
🤝 '''7 – Braving Trust.''' Trust is broken into seven observable behaviors captured by BRAVING: Boundaries, Reliability, Accountability, Vault, Integrity, Nonjudgment, and Generosity. The chapter shows how to build and repair trust in small, consistent moments—set and respect limits, do what you say you’ll do, own mistakes and make amends, keep confidences, practice your values, ask for and offer help without judgment, and extend generous interpretations. Leaders use the BRAVING Inventory to turn vague tensions into clear agreements and next steps. ''Integrity is choosing courage over comfort; it’s choosing what’s right over what’s fun, fast, or easy; and it’s practicing your values, not just professing them.''
=== IV – Learning to Rise ===
🌅 '''8 – Learning to Rise.''' Here the Rising Strong process is adapted for teams: the Reckoning (notice emotion and get curious), the Rumble (write the SFD, reality‑check the story with “the story I’m telling myself…,” and name what’s true), and the Revolution (turn the learning into new practices and agreements). By normalizing falls, naming triggers, and building language for hard landings, groups create cultures that invite calculated risk and faster recovery. The tools emphasize preparation—naming emotions, drafting the first story, and agreeing on rumble commitments and circle‑backs—so people can reenter tough conversations with clarity and self‑respect. ''We have to teach people how to land before they jump.''
