What If Your Reputation Could Buy You Success—and How to Spend It Wisely?
Thinking About Reputation
If someone were to ask you… What Three Words Sums Up Your Reputation?
What do you think you’d hear?

The Reputation Economy
In the not too distant future your reputation may be the thing that defines you. Perhaps, a little like the Black Mirror episode “Nosedive” from Season 3, but hopefully not so easily manipulated and contrived. There are pros and cons if we are to be defined solely by our reputation. The pros are, as they always have been, that we are known for what we do and what we deliver. That we are trusted and that we do behave well.
