A deeply insightful and hands-on treatment of authenticity in the workplace and in the community
In Let Them See You: Empowering Change Through Authenticity, mental health advocate and People Operations expert Madison Butler delivers an eye-opening and practical playbook for what it means to create safe spaces not just for others, but for yourself. You'll learn what authenticity really looks like as you discover how to be authentic with yourself and with the world around you. The author will help you uncover who you are, and what you need in order to be safe space first to yourself and then to others.
The book walks you through the micro- and macro-traumas that impact how you show up at home, at work, in your community, and everywhere else, every day. It unpacks the heartbreak, fear, and trauma experienced by members of every community, and gives you strategies for understanding people as they really are, bruises and all.
Inside the book:
A realistic and empathetic look at authenticity that takes into account the complexity of the human experience
Strategies for acknowledging the myriad experiences, viewpoints, and perspectives of all people
A focus on reality over unwarranted what it means to acknowledge your reality, while still speaking kindly to yourself.
Perfect for managers, business leaders, and people in general, Let Them See You is a can't-miss book for human resources practitioners, managers, business owners, and anyone else with an interest in enriching their understanding of what it means to demonstrate-and appreciate-authenticity.
