“Moral courage is the commitment to act upon one’s values regardless of the difficulty or personal cost. It inspires the conviction to take action with the clarity to remain constant in goals but flexible in method.” — Social Standard, Jacqueline Novogratz

On your mission, you will encounter adversity.

Challenges that test your resolve.

It takes a special kind of courage to soldier on.

Moral Courage.

You have to have the guts to take action.

Maintaining your velocity with a focus on your goal but flexibility in your method.

Your team will look to you for their courage.

Will they find the inspiration they seek?

Because moral courage is…

“what drives leaders to direct or redirect their lives, to tackle seemingly intractable problems, and to stay true to their values in the face of enormous challenges.”
