IN SOME ways, it feels as though this article has been a long time coming. In others, it feels as though I’m stating the obvious.

Whichever way I choose to look at this, one thing I know is that these words need to spill out of my heart, via my head, and onto this page.

If you’ve been consuming my content for a while, if you’ve paid attention to what really makes me tick, this will come as no surprise at all. If you’ve come here to learn purely about personal branding, visibility and all things business confidence, it might come as a bit of a shock.

Did you notice that?

Two of those first paragraphs spoke of polar opposites. No middle ground. No bridge. Black or white. Left or right.

And that is precisely what I believe to be wrong, not only in the business world, but in society at large.

It’s all very Lord Of The Flies. Tribalism at its worst.

We file ourselves into camps, stick rigidly to our ‘argument’ and never waver. Or, at least, never in plain sight.
