Activating Human Potential 

at Work

You know how most of the time we're just skimming the surface of our potential at work?

Well, I help leaders and organisations activate their true brilliance.

“The complexity of our time requires a greater and wiser use of our capacities. The world can thrive only if we can grow.”

Jean Houston

Now, more than ever before

we must come together to co-create workplaces where people can thrive, innovate, play and belong.  

And one of the key catalysts in this much-needed transformation is leaders feeling empowered to be more themselves. Because when we show up authentically and imperfectly, we bring out the best in ourselves, and each other. 

However, there is no doubt about it - being true to yourself is tricky business.
 
And, most workplaces, still have a long way to go.
  • 1 in 2 people are not willing to be vulnerable at work
  • 67% of women of colour report 'covering' at work
  • 45% of straight white men report 'covering' at work
The evidence is clear. Going against the grain of our true nature is corrosive to our wellbeing, our performance and our relationships.
 
That’s why I specialise in the tricky business of authentic leadership.

As our external challenges increase, our inner resource must also increase.

Hi, I'm Cassandra Goodman

And I'm so glad you are here.

Over my career as a global customer/employee transformation executive, it became clear that human potential is the most valuable, and yet the most overlooked resource in organisations today.

Today, I work with clients to co-create workplaces that empower human brilliance.

I bring over two decades of senior leadership experience to my work, including being the Global Director of Employee Experience at a Bupa where I was accountable for activating their purpose Longer, Healthier, Happier Lives for their 86,000 employees. 

I'm an accredited Time to Think facilitator, an IFS-informed coach, the author of two books Self-Fidelity and Being True, and host of the True Power Podcast
