Below are videos of three of the 20 minute presentations that provided excellent thought provoking material on the theme of Leadership in the workplace for Network members.

Finally in this video “Great Leaders, what makes them and how to grow them?”, James Rutherford from Aon Hewitt discusses his organisation’s research on the topic of leadership, which is vital to the health of every organisation.
