Learn to discover your true self and live authentically through courage and openness, despite the challenges posed by conditioning, experiences, and societal norms. The path to authenticity is full of challenges that require courage and openness. For realizing TrueSelf™, it’s essential to reflect on one’s personality, values, and beliefs and to question deep-seated assumptions. Many are influenced by upbringing, experiences, and the pressure of societal norms, which can prevent us from living our true selves.

The willingness to confront these fears and beliefs plays a key role. Especially in professional life, we often encounter rigid structures and authoritarian leadership styles that limit personal expression and development. It’s important to recognize these structures, question them, and embark on a path that is in harmony with our own authenticity. This pertains not only to personal but also to professional fulfillment. Engaging with corporate culture and deciding how to be your TrueSelf™ within it are crucial steps on this path.
Courage to authenticity opens the path to personal growth.


The Power of Authenticity

Experience the transforming power of the authentic self and how it anchors you in a world full of turmoil and promotes personal growth. In the dynamic VUCA and BANI world, characterized by volatility, uncertainty, complexity, ambiguity, as well as fragility, fear, non-linearity, and opacity, the individual’s authenticity becomes the central anchor point. The Authentic Self not only provides stability and orientation but also enables clear assumption of responsibility. Through a profound understanding of one’s being, abilities, and limiting beliefs, authenticity allows conscious decisions. This clarity enables one to actively shape one’s life and environment, rather than merely reacting to external circumstances. The power of authenticity thus becomes the driving force behind personal and professional growth, encouraging individuals to be part of change and actively shape it. Thus, the true self becomes an indispensable element for thriving in a constantly changing world.

The TrueSelf™ Formula

In our fast-paced times, marked by constant change, the TrueSelf™ formula serves as a foundation for personal development. Developed by the consulting firm Forster&Klevenz, it is based on the pillars: Grow, Recognize, and Decide. A central element is the Growth Mindset, the belief that we can expand our abilities and knowledge through commitment and continuous learning. Self-reflection and learning or unlearning habits promote the recognition of our true strengths and values. These insights are essential for conscious decisions that enable us to actively shape our life direction and environment. Understanding our inner beliefs and goals allows us to lead a life in harmony with our true self. Thus, the TrueSelf™ formula is not only a key to personal development but also to success in a work world that demands flexibility, adaptability, and authenticity.

It involves consciously opting for actions that reflect our authentic self, especially in challenging times. Such decisions preserve our integrity in personal and professional realms and lead to a coherent and satisfied life. Understanding and acting according to our TrueSelf™ promotes authenticity, resilience against external pressure, and deep life satisfaction. It encourages us to carve our own paths instead of following alien patterns or expectations. With the TrueSelf™ formula, we act with authenticity and integrity in every situation.
