Feeling stuck doesn't mean you're not capable.
It simply means you're reacting out of habit.
This self-study programme gives you clear,
simple tools to face difficult moments, move beyond fear, and act with courage and clarity. At your own pace.
In a way that fits your reality.
- Real change
- Useful tools
- At your pace
You know you have more to give.
But doing it when pressure rises is not easy.
- You’re overloaded — and there’s no time to change old patterns.
- You lack simple, clear tools to handle tough situations.
- You want to do what’s best — but reactions and habits take over in tough moments.
As pressure builds, you stay caught in the same patterns — reacting fast, thinking later, and feeling frustrated that things don’t change. And all the while, the impact you want never happens — and the situations that matter stay unresolved.
What you need is a clear, structured way to handle difficult moments — so you can stay calm, think wisely, and act with courage when it matters.
That’s exactly what the Courageous Leader™ Self-Study has been designed to do.
Built on the Courageous Leader™ book and process trusted by leaders in 50+ countries.
A structured journey that creates real change — at your own pace.
The Courageous Leader™ Self-Study is a proven programme that helps you move beyond fear, take ownership, and act with courage — in the moments that matter most.
And you can do it without stepping away from your work, your team or your reality.
Just like any meaningful change, it starts small — and grows one step at a time.
Through short video modules, clear explanations, reflection, and assignments,
you learn to stop, reflect, choose and act in the real situations you face — at work and in life.
You gain clarity inside — before you act outside.
You learn what drives your reactions — the fears, habits and needs that shape how
you respond under pressure. With this clarity, you can pause, reflect and choose how you want to show up, instead of reacting on autopilot.
Easy to begin. Designed for your busy reality.
Everything is ready for you— the videos, the guidance, the reflections, and the assignments. You simply follow the steps and work with your own real situations and decisions.
It’s a complete, step-by-step format that supports real change and builds personal accountability — designed around your reality.
Leaders in 50+ countries have trusted these tools for more than 20 years to face difficult moments, move beyond fear, and act with courage when it matters.
They will work for you too.
A proven process — built on decades of global experience.
Hello, I’m Margareta Kull, author of Courageous Leader – Increase Your Impact by Facing Your Fears. Over the past 20 years, my team and I have trained hundreds of leaders in 50+ countries — through long, in-depth live programmes as well as shorter formats — helping them build clarity, courage and long-term impact.
Our goal has always been the same: calm, capable people who act wisely — for their teams, their organisations, and everyone affected.
But live training isn’t always possible. That’s why we created the Courageous Leader™ Self-Study: a cost-effective, structured and repeatable format that keeps what drives real change — and makes it accessible to many more people.
It helps you face what’s challenging, move beyond fear, and act on what truly matters — in the real world, when it counts.
Designed for real-world challenges.
Each module builds on the Courageous Leader™ Process - helping you face what’s difficult, move beyond fear, and take meaningful action in the situations you’re actually dealing with - addressing root causes, not just surface behaviours.
Focused on building confidence and ownership.
You create your own personalised Courageous Leader™ Guide — a practical reference you can return to when challenges arise. It anchors your learning and helps you stay focused, also under pressure.
Questions that change how you see things.
You will meet questions you are not used to asking yourself — questions that open new
perspectives on your reactions, your choices and the impact you have on others.
They help you see how your inner world shapes decisions and outcomes — in the moments that matter.
A process you carry with you.
Being a Courageous Leader™ is a lifelong journey.
The steps and tools stay with you
long after the programme is finished. Once integrated, you can access them easily whenever you need clarity, support or direction — turning the process into a practice that grows with you over time.
A clear, structured path to becoming a more courageous leader.
Grounded in the Courageous Leader™ book.
Module 1: Introduction
Discover why courageous leaders matter.
This module sets the tone, introduces the key tools, and helps you prepare for your own journey.
Module 2: Stop.
Instead of reacting on autopilot, you start by Simply Stopping.
This stage helps you pause, stay quiet, resist sarcastic or emotional reactions — and keep your hands off keyboards or phones.
Module 3: Reflect.
Give yourself a moment — to be with your thoughts.
You gain insight and clarity as you explore inner patterns and fears, understand your reality, see what matters most, and notice what you want to be different.
Module 4: Choose.
Make intentional, value-aligned decisions.
This module focuses on building the courage to choose wisely under pressure -
not automatically.
Module 5: Act.
Take action — with ownership and presence.
It sounds simple in theory, but in practice acting with intention is often harder than we expect. This stage helps you follow through on what matters, also in difficult situations — for your organisation and everyone affected.
Module 6: Time to take action.
Create your Courageous Leader™ Guide.
A final integration session where you create your personal roadmap to stay
focused and accountable when facing future challenges.
By the end of the programme, you will have received feedback, discovered what holds you back, and learned how to handle reactions and tough situations with more awareness. You will walk away with clear strategies to act with courage — also under pressure.

This programme is ideal if...
- You avoid certain conversations — also when they matter.
- You lose clarity under pressure and want to stay calmer, more grounded and confident.
- You want better collaboration, clearer decisions and better results — and more space for the long-term, not constant firefighting.
- You work hard but stay stuck in the same patterns — also when you try to change them.
- You struggle with tough moments — conversations, boundaries, conflict —
and need tools that truly help. - You want to change the dynamic in key relationships, at work or at home.
Don't let firefighting be your normal.
It's a sign of reactive habits that go unchallenged.
Wasting time on solutions that don’t work is exhausting. It drains energy, adds frustration, and leaves you no better equipped to handle the situations that matter.
And when nothing really changes, you end up in the same patterns again: reacting fast, thinking later, and feeling frustrated that your efforts don’t create the impact you want.
You don’t need another tool that looks good on paper. You need something that helps you act differently — not just know more.
Our tools work because they help you address the real causes behind your reactions — not just the symptoms. You learn to understand what happens inside you in tough moments, so you can make wiser choices and create the change you actually want.
This isn’t about learning more — it’s about doing differently.
