Show Notes
In this episode of Your Digital Reputation, host Roger Christie explores the value of leaders being authentic online with James d'Apice, founder of law firm Gravamen and host of the successful Coffee and a Case Note movement. They discuss the benefits and challenges of simply being yourself on social media - the opportunities that come from being trolled, and how compliments can be crippling.
James - who embodies the very rare combination of law firm partner, podcaster, vlogger, former radio host, and rapper - shares his expertise on maintaining authenticity in the professional services industry. Tune in to hear his insights on how leaders - even those in conservative, risk averse industries - can "change the trajectory of their lives" online.

Most conventional wisdom about executive profile building starts with being seen, and having an opinion. But what if the smartest strategy was almost the opposite?
Would you say the main thrust of your communications reflects your competence, or character?
For years, leaders have been encouraged to tell better stories. New research from Dr Jacki Johnson now suggests - for some organisations - that may be the most dangerous advice they could act on.
