Integrity and Authenticity: Being True To the Future

In a zeitgeist of extreme tribalism and partisanship, it may seem that having integrity and authenticity means standing firm in your worldviews no matter how they might impact those around you. The truth is that acting with sincerity has much more to do with the ability to be vulnerable due to the maturity that comes with a deeply developed identity that is not easily threatened or manipulated. Foresight and Futures Thinking challenges its users to foster this type of awareness concerning their inner processes, reactions, and emotions, allowing us to embrace the diversity around us without falling prey to hiding from the world or becoming defensive. In this episode, Yvette and Frank uncover woke-washing, “values hacking,” and free speech vs. free reach. Spoiler: None of these things are on Santa’s Nice List.
