Should you bring your authentic self to work or play it safe with a professional persona? Explore the complex tightrope walk between genuine self-expression and career survival. From the proven benefits of workplace authenticity—increased engagement, better relationships, stronger leadership—to the very real risks of judgment, discrimination, and cultural misalignment. Discover why this isn't a simple choice and how individual differences, company culture, and unconscious biases create a minefield for anyone trying to be genuinely themselves at the office.
