  The Authenticity Paradox “ Individuals long for authenticity, but struggle with how to gain it. Businesses long to fulfil that need by selling authenticity, but cannot really provide it. Yet consumers do perceive many inherently inauthentic offerings – as they do countries, cities, places, and nature – as undeniably authentic; so enterprises must learn the discipline of  rendering  their offerings as real” ‘Authenticity: What consumers really want’ – James Gilmore & Joseph Pine
  Translation It’s all about  them , not you.

Editor's Notes

  1. If you want to use a client logo, it should go in the top left hand corner (though, the slide can of course remain 1000heads only!)
  2. For a single contact, use only the details on the left hand side. In these cases, you may wish to add a photo on the right (e.g. if the deck is being used at a conference).
