Three Wise Men on Authenticity

27 Dec 2006 in Thought of the Day by Garrick

It’s not the ancient gift of perfumes and spices, just some good thinking on being yourself:

“[Pro sports marketing] puts athletes on pedastals . Exactly where they shouldn’t be….The beauty of Happy Gilmore and big personalities is that you don’t have to create commercials to promote them.” - Mark Cuban

“By adopting a term that seems like a simple re-branding of ‘users’, but which is actually unconnected to head count or adoption, they’ve managed to report what the press wants to hear, while providing no actual information.” - Clay Shrirky

“You’re not a bad person, not really, but telling the truth at your current company tends to get people fired.” - Hugh MacLeod
