Whats the difference between projecting confidence and fakery between honest overconfidence and lying?.
Also this is a requirement
Listen to the buzz: Can we “fake it til we make it”? What does this expression mean and is there truth to it? Is it ethically permissible to “fake it”? What can (and cant) we fake? What does it mean to “make it”? How do we know if we are actually faking? Whats the difference between projecting confidence and fakery, between “honest overconfidence” and lying? Is there a difference?
Does this difference play out in the same way over different forms of communication: the resume, the elevator pitch, the interview, in daily workplace interactions or team-projects? Are “faking” and “making” industry specific or do they cover a general approach to job-seeking? Whose determining what it means to “make it,” and does this influence how one might go about fashioning/selling oneself? How is Ehrenreichs experience with “transitioning” different from or similar to other job-seekers? Where is the self-fashioned Self in all this? Might there be a darker side to the relationship between education and work?
