And you've summed it up very nicely in this one. I've got a gripe about Clive's sub-head though - "Fire the publicist. Go off message. Let all your employees blab and blog. In the new world of radical transparency, the path to business success is clear." He's obviously got a wrong impression of what PR really is, and what it can/should do in today's business landscape. Well that's another story/blog post altogether. Meanwhile, I've enjoyed reading your posts. And thanks for pointing out other worthy readings online. Hi Greg,

“been writing about the merging of the personal and the professional and the roles of identity, reputation and transparency”

– Now I see the convergence on those two posts. And you’ve summed it up very nicely in this one.

I’ve got a gripe about Clive’s sub-head though - “Fire the publicist. Go off message. Let all your employees blab and blog. In the new world of radical transparency, the path to business success is clear.”

He’s obviously got a wrong impression of what PR really is, and what it can/should do in today’s business landscape. Well that’s another story/blog post altogether.

Meanwhile, I’ve enjoyed reading your posts. And thanks for pointing out other worthy readings online.

Being transparent doesn't mean being stupid or sloppy. There is still a place for communication council in the world of the see-through CEO. GPC Thanks Melvin -

It got me thinking, which profession in the past was best at transparency? Plus, maybe blogging is the profession of transparency? Good post Greg. It got me thinking, which profession in the past was best at transparency?

Plus, maybe blogging is the profession of transparency?
