Interviews with Influencers
Welcome to The Truth Trade®: a series of interviews with some of the world's leading practitioners from the modern influence industry.
With so much speculation about fake news and the dark arts of strategic communication,
this initiative sets out to understand the realities and effects of contemporary influence.
In equal parts an exposé, an historical document and an educational resource
– this online repository is intended as an account of an industry in transition.
Who are the people that set today's global agenda? What do they actually do? Should the
public be concerned? And what does the future hold for the global influence industry?
