THE AUTHORITY-MAVEN (AM)

Authority-Mavens are as serious as they are skillful, maestros with the Midas touch.

The Authority-Maven is the original “edu-tainer,” a natural teacher (Authority) who makes learning fun (Maven). Whether a credentialed or self-made expert, these super-producers won’t hide out in any ivory tower or dish out dry, academic fodder for elite eyes only. Authority- Maven hybrids have a flair for bringing complex concepts to the everyday person, empowering them with savvy shortcuts and hacks. This archetype can thrive by sharing “how I did it” stories, especially presented in a media-savvy and fun style (think: the thirty-second TikTok expert). They can talk about the same topic fifty different ways, and somehow, it never sounds boring.
