LIA Cast 49 - Authenticity
This week we take on what we find to be a slippery topic. How do we know when we're being authentic in our work? How do we think about honesty in our expressions? Can one remain honest while still attempting to manipulate an audience?
We land on four items of consideration that inform our own senses of how authenticity works:
- Venue
- Audience
- Core Values/Mission
- Context
