Cassandra Worthy | Change Enthusiasm to Get Better Instead of Bitter
Cassandra Worthy is the founder and CEO of Change Enthusiasm Global, a well-respected Leadership Development and Consulting company. Early in Cassandra’s career, when her company was in the aftermath of a $5B acquisition, she almost quit. Fueled by frustration and stress, Cassandra was on the precipice of walking out of the office and never coming back. Had she done so, she would have become another statistic. Yet another African-American female departed from a STEM-driven industry. Top talent voluntarily resigns during a time of significant organizational shift. Another change victim.
Instead, Cassandra woke up one day and decided to view those feelings as a signal that she was sitting in a moment of opportunity. An opportunity to transform that chemistry, that feeling into something better. To choose every day to do something, say something, and behave in some way that would move the needle of her work experience towards a better feeling. Cassandra didn’t know it at the time, but she was cultivating a teachable strategy to inspire anyone to become enthusiastic about change and to find their unique power of resilience during turbulent times. Today, Cassandra helps organizations disrupt ‘change as usual’. Through a practical and repeatable framework, she shows them how they can transform their culture from surviving change to growing through change.
Change Enthusiasm is not just about positive thinking, it's about embracing all emotions as signals for growth and opportunity. Tune in to this episode as Cassandra Worthy explores real-world examples of how to navigate tough situations and make choices that lead to personal growth.
