  • We all have many different parts that make up who we are; secret to internal and external success lies in learning to recognize and integrate these parts.
  • Internal Family Systems (IFS) is an effective method for navigating the workplace conflicts, for example taking on a new project, negotiating your salary or constructive feedback.
  • IFS can help us turn toward that tension constructively so we can build the clarity and courage required for the next evolution of our professional development.
  • IFS approach involves meeting and getting to know our parts, validating that each part of us is valuable and wise, and facilitating better ongoing internal collaboration so that they can work together on the same team.
