National Authenticity Day

National Authenticity Day is celebrated on August 16 every year.

This day recognizes the power of authenticity, a term that goes beyond just “being yourself.” It is dedicated to people who decide to do things their way rather than following the crowd. They are not afraid to demonstrate their true personality, to share their opinions, and to live life on their terms.

People also want their leaders to be real. They want to know that they are human beings who behave consistently with who they are. Inconsistency creates distrust while consistency in what a person thinks, feels, does and says creates trust.

National Authenticity Day is a day to celebrate and showcase the most unique and authentic version of yourself. How do you demonstrate your authenticity?
