Empson & Morley – Leading Professional People
Back To Shows
Overview
Professor Laura Empson and David Morley uncover the complicated, messy and surprisingly emotional challenges of leading professionals.

It reveals the realities that lie beneath the ‘professional’ veneer that these highly successful individuals and their organisations present to the outside world and brings together for the first-time cutting-edge theory and first-hand experience to explore crucial leadership questions.
