Learning from political leaders. Greg Young challenges our future politicians
So who do you trust? Brown the ex-Chancellor versus Cameron the ex-Etonian: Obama the innovator versus McCain the safe pair of hands. What are the fundamentals of leadership? Would you prefer trusted experience or an inspired leader, to drive towards the future?
Summer gets too hot. Too stressed for Summer? asks Danielle Grant.
In many work cultures, showing stress at senior level can be career limiting and even job threatening.

LeaderShape and the renowned Oxford Brookes University Business School are inviting senior level applications for a ground-breaking leadership research project. Limited places are available for the opportunity to participate in an innovative programme, comparing leadership development approaches.
