We explore the role of a leader in detail, viewing it in terms of the expectations at work in the organization and how to address these. Through this perspective, leadership becomes an exchange between leaders and co-workers. You do not become a leader as a matter of course; you must make yourself worthy of the calling.

We will also learn from Elizabeth’s antithesis, the most well-known character of the theatre, Shakespeare’s Hamlet. Hamlet is the prince who under insane and conflicting pressures never manages to make up his mind, and therefore ends up with a solution which many leaders have chosen both before and after him – he plays a madman. 

The seminar is held in London where we benchmark a time adjacent to our own, but which to an even larger degree was fraught with upheaval and challenges. You will experience a completely different London when we use it as a classroom in this seminar.
