Should You ‘Speak Truth to Power’?

Recently, New York Times Bestselling Author and Leadership Expert, Michael Hyatt, made the following comment on his LinkedIn profile. He said:

“Speaking out takes courage. You will never grow into the leader you were meant to be if you are not willing to take a risk and occasionally speak up. Being a suck-up will not get you promoted. Being courageous eventually will—so long as it’s done in the right spirit.”

His comment really made me think: When it comes to “speaking up and speaking out,” what is the better mindset that will lead to a better life?
