Welcome back to the latest episode of Humans of Authenticity with the first Australian guest on this channel. Andrew Gosbell is the Chair of Each, a for-purpose organization delivering health and support services that improve lives and strengthen communities, and an Advisor at the Associations Forum (Australia). He shares his journey from working in the association sector to consulting and delves deep into understanding the keyword ‘acceptance’ and categorizing it into accepting self, others, and situations. We also touch on pivotal career points, the importance of mentors, dealing with imposter syndrome, and how personality attributes like introversion can be strengths in leadership roles.
