Confronting the status quo can intimidate many, however Be Fearless provides antidotes from thought leaders, entrepreneurs, and everyday people who have defied all odds.” (Mellody Hobson, President, Ariel Investments)“Jean Case has done what many before her have tried but been unable to achieve: break down the essential qualities and principles that drive success.

Starting a business is not easy, but Be Fearless gives entrepreneurs the tools they need to embark—fearlessly—on their own journey.” (Tory Burch, designer & CEO, Tory Burch LLC)“I wish I had Jean Case’s Be Fearless by my side when we were starting Warby Parker. This engaging book highlights stories of ordinary people who end up doing extraordinary things, much to the surprise of others and even themselves, and draws out the “secret sauce” behind success. For anyone looking to make a change, start a company, or change the world, Be Fearless provides both the inspiration and tools to make a real impact.” (Neil Blumenthal, co-founder and co-CEO of Warby Parker)“When the going gets tough, crack open Be Fearless for a jolt of examples of how entrepreneurs and leaders have broken through and to be inspired to keep pushing forward on your own journey to change the world.” (Brad Feld, entrepreneur and venture capitalist at Foundry Group)“As a philanthropist, investor and internet and impact investing pioneer, Case advocates for the importance of embracing a more fearless approach to innovation and bringing about transformational breakthroughs.” (Leaders Magazine) Jean Case, the first female Chairman of the National Geographic Society in its 130-year history and CEO of the Case Foundation, is a philanthropist, investor, and internet and impact investing pioneer who advocates for the importance of embracing a more fearless approach to innovate and bring about transformational breakthroughs. Her career in the private sector spanned nearly two decades before co-founding the Case Foundation in 1997. Before the Case Foundation, she was a senior executive at America Online, Inc. where she directed the marketing and branding that helped bring AOL to the masses. In addition, Jean currently serves on the boards of Accelerate Brain Cancer Cure (ABC2), the White House Historical Association, and BrainScope Company, Inc., as well as on the advisory boards of the Brain Trust Accelerator Fund, Stanford Center on Philanthropy and Civil Society and Georgetown University’s Beeck Center for Social Impact and Innovation. She was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2016 and has received honorary degrees from Indiana University and George Mason University. Be Fearless: 5 Principles for a Life of Breakthroughs and Purpose is her first book.
This book is a call to action for those seeking to live extraordinary lives and bring about transformational change.
When National Geographic Chairman Jean Case set out to investigate the core qualities of great change makers, past and present, from inventors to revolutionaries, she found five surprising traits all had in common. They weren’t wealth, privilege, or even genius. It was that all of these exceptional men and women chose to make a “big bet,” take bold risks, learn from their failures, reach beyond their bubbles, and let urgency conquer fear.
Throughout Be Fearless, Jean vividly illustrates these principles through storytelling—from her own transformational life experiences, to Jane Goodall’s remarkable breakthroughs in understanding and protecting chimpanzees, to celebrity chef José Andrés’ decision to be a “first responder” and take his kitchen to the sites of devastating hurricanes to feed the hungry, to Bryan Stevenson’s ambitious efforts to end incarceration inequities, and more. She shares new insights to stories you might think you know—like AirBnB’s tale of starting from scratch to transform the hospitality industry, to John F. Kennedy’s history-making moonshot—and gems from changemakers you’ve never heard of.
Weaving together storytelling, practical tips and inspiration, Be Fearless will teach you how to put the five fearless principles to work so that they too can spark the sorts of remarkable breakthroughs that change the world.
An Inspirational Read that's Actually Actionable This is an enjoyable, engaging read that lays out principles to succeed and gives concrete examples of how people have put theory into action. I was afraid the author - who has an inspiring story of her own: internet pioneer, Chairwoman of National Geographic, CEO of a charitable organization - would just write a self-aggrandizing memoir, but the book is full of real stories and is an inspiring roadmap for success. Quite nice. Check it out.Must Read if You Want to Create Breakthroughs! Be Fearless is inspiring and enlightening. It’s a must read for anyone who wants to go from good to great, and filled with stories of some of the most prominent fearless changemakers and everyday heroes articulating how they overcame fear to create incredible breakthroughs. Jean also shares her own narrative in a way she’s never done before - a Midwest girl raised by a single mom to an internet pioneer, philanthropic role model and first woman chair of National Geographic... and all of the unlikely amazing adventures that journey has included. This is a book that will become a standard reference on my bookshelf.Great, Honest, Inspiring Book I've been proud to count Jean Case as a friend for over a decade -- and this book is a wonderful presentation of everything that is Jean: fierce, inspiring, candid, important. It tells her story -- ups and downs -- and the stories of countless other "normal" people who have found a way to have impact in business, government, non-profits, and the world at large. It has concrete advice on how to "Be Fearless" and valuable insights from those who have succeeded in doing so. No matter who you are, this book is for you!
