From a businessman turned Jungian analyst, shamanic practitioner, and philanthropist, The Necktie and The Jaguar is a riveting memoir AND a tool for self-reflection. It provides thought-provoking questions on the book's themes: work-life balance, competition, spirituality, and authenticity.

Carl Greer found security in conforming to the cultural expectations of a postwar, midwestern, middle-class upbringing after a childhood tragedy taught him to constrict his emotions. Becoming a businessman, he drove his team to success and built his wealth only to find in midlife that his spiritual self was crying out for expression.

Writing about his experiences in Jungian analysis and as a Jungian analyst, Greer shares his spiritual practices and vulnerabilities.

An illuminating roadmap to personal transformation, his memoir is an inspirational testament to the power of self-discovery.

“A moving testimonial…”—Murray Stein, PhD, Jungian analyst, past president of the International Association for Analytical Psychology, and author of Jung’s Map of the Soul
