Cassandra Worthy Biography

With her engaging presence and authoritative insights, Cassandra Worthy has established herself as a global leader on the topic of Change Enthusiasm®, a concept she developed to help individuals and organizations thrive through periods of significant change. Her approach seeks to address the emotional components of change, which are often overlooked but crucial for successful transformation. She argues that 90% of successful change adoption hinges not just on know-how, but on the motivation and willingness to embrace change.

As the Founder & CEO of Change Enthusiasm Global, Worthy has cultivated a client list that includes major corporations such as Procter & Gamble, Allstate, Jones Lang LaSalle, Centene Corporation, ConferenceDirect, and WeWork. Her tailor-made keynote speeches and workshops are specifically designed to inspire not only C-suite executives but also entire organizations, motivating them to adopt Change Enthusiasm® and transform their approach to significant shifts like mergers, acquisitions, and market disruptions.

Worthy brings a rich background to her role as a change leader, with over 15 years in Corporate M&A and a tenure as a Fortune 500 chemical engineer and manager in the consumer-packaged goods industry. This experience informs her in-depth and actionable keynotes, where she shares vital leadership traits essential for navigating high-stress environments effectively. Her book, "Change Enthusiasm: How to Harness the Power of Emotion for Leadership and Success," further expands on these concepts, providing readers with a practical guide to cultivating resilience and adaptability. Worthy's dynamic speaking engagements, including her TEDxPearlStreet talk titled "What If?", underscore her ability to connect with diverse audiences, instilling in them the tools and mindset needed to lead and succeed amidst continual change.
