The Post-Truth Business

At a time when there is so much disruption, trust is more important than ever. The Post-Truth Business provides invaluable insight into how brands can earn trust and play an authentic and meaningful role in consumers' lives. Sean has always had a knack for uncovering human truths and cultural insights, and he delivers again with The Post-Truth Business. It's a must-read and its publication couldn't be more timely.

A deep study into the culture of post-truth and what it means for brands. This book is a rigorous read for those who want to better understand the implications of our post-truth era.

Sean provides an incisive view of the troubled cultural and political landscape that modern brands need to navigate. But what makes this book 'mission critical' is the rigorous research, laser insights and the intelligence briefings he has extracted from a broad range of experts. The Post-Truth Business is a field manual for marketers.

The Post-Truth Business clarifies the context of how mistrust has been building in our lives over time. People are using social platforms to distort the truth and the more we are exposed to the lies around us, the more immune we become to the central idea of what is real - and right. This book goes beyond the standard text on 'fake news' and digs much deeper, giving a more insightful and worldly view that demonstrates the interconnectedness of how consumers are now informed.

Sean's book shows how and why we are now living in a post-truth world and how this is perhaps not as new a reality as we might think. Through a wonderfully wide set of interviews and examples from around the world, Sean shows a way forward for brands to rethink how they behave in order to regain meaning and trust. The rules have changed, perhaps for good, and The Post-Truth Business is guidebook to help us navigate this new landscape.
