In this episode of the Human Capital podcast, Jeff welcomes a special guest from Australia, Cassandra Goodman, who introduces her latest book titled "Being True." What makes Cassie stand out is her wealth of experience in the business world and her extensive time as a senior executive and an external consultant. She has made a significant impact on renowned companies like GE, Adobe, and Mastercard, but what really sets Cassie apart is her mission to help leaders embrace their authentic selves, quirks and all. She's not just a fountain of innovative ideas, but also a fantastic role model for genuine self-expression. During their conversation, Jeff and Cassie dive into the intriguing concept of "True Leadership." They chat about how this approach requires us to let go of the traditional norms of leadership we're accustomed to. They dig deep into the significance of getting back in touch with our inner essence, understanding the different aspects of ourselves, and how being true to who we are can profoundly enhance our leadership with empathy and effectiveness. Cassie calls upon the well known therapeudic modality of Internal Family Systems (IFS), founded by Dr. Richard C. Schwartz, Ph.D. and leverages this to boast healthier "internal" and "external" leadership.
