Authentic: The Myth of Bringing Your Full Self to Work - Jodi-ann Burey

Descriere Authentic: The Myth of Bringing Your Full Self to Work - Jodi-ann Burey

\nFrom the creator of a viral TED talk comes a bold call to rethink authenticity at work \n \nWorkplace dynamics in recent years have been a dizzying storm of broken promises. Companies that once encouraged employees to come as you are and bring your full, authentic self to work are now shutting down initiatives, part of an ongoing cycle of trading on our identities when it's convenient and profitable. Those calls for authenticity were never honest and are actually harmful. \n \nJodi-Ann Burey, writer and critic known for her TED talk The Myth of Bringing Your Full, Authentic Self to Work, delves into the dangers of disclosure in environments that aren't built for our well-being. With insights from pop culture, academic research, and interviews with other professionals of color, Burey argues that we can do better than shallow ploys for representation. \n \nOur physical and emotional health are at risk, and too much is sacrificed--for ourselves and for collective progress--when our full potential is blocked by racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, and ableism. Authentic is a powerful reckoning--and now is the time to reclaim our agency. Even at work.\n
