This landed in my Inbox yesterday, it’s silly although somewhat true. I know I fall into one of these categories… Have they missed out any?

There is sometimes a difference between how you want to be perceived, the way you actually are AND the way you are actually perceived.

This has been happening for years in advertising. Organisation wants people to LOVE organisation, people think otherwise. McDonalds wants to represent family/healthy, people thing not many positive things. Coke wants to be perceived as fun, I perceive them as unhealthy….

So here’s some fun…
