BRADLEY KIM

The TrueTell Hero

Heroes.  They come in all shapes and sizes.  With purpose and fortitude as resilient as they are diverse.  But while there is a personal variance in what drives heroes, one thing remains consistent.  Their authenticity.  Their truth.  About who they are.  What they stand for.  How they communicate.  And how people respond to the sound of that authentic, heroic communication. 

One of the driving forces behind my creation of The TrueTell method, a revolutionary program designed to help leaders discover their own authentic voice, was to examine and celebrate the power of heroism.  How it sounds.  How people process it.  And how it makes them feel and act. 

As part of that celebration, we have created a unique honor to recognize those heroes among us who exemplify the foundation of authenticity -  inspiration, motivation, integrity, honesty and trust.   

Introducing - The TrueTell Hero. 

We are honored to present our first three TrueTell Heroes here.  Some are famous.  Some not so.  But all are examples of those whose voices are built to lead – with power, truth and passion.  

Join me in honoring them. 

This is Bradley Kim. He is a defensive back for the Air Force Academy football team. On Friday, July 27th, 2018, he publicly came out to become the first openly gay active football player at a service academy. At a time when some in our national and local government are crying out for stronger anti-LGBTQ discrimination laws, young people like Bradley continue to courageously break these barriers of hate and marginalization (at a military academy no less). We salute this young man and all those like him who step out and use their voice for good and truth. We take pride in celebrating Bradley Kim as our first TrueTell Hero.
