There’s a nuance to scicomm careers that can really bog down your mental energy…and even complicate how you think about your own identity.
That is: doing scicomm well often requires taking on the identity and ‘voice’ of the organization - or project, place, or even species - that you’re representing or sharing about.
So this week, we tackle things like:
- What you have to weigh when you’re representing someone/something else
- Everyone knows there’s a person behind the social media account, but what’s that mean for scicommers who are that person?
- What drives the shift to frame things in your own voice instead
- The many voices of a single scicomm career
Dig in for yourself: Is your voice your own right now? And, how do you feel about that?
