About our Inspirational Leadership Course
What can you expect from Inspirational Leadership: Lessons from Shakespeare’s Henry V course on 13 September?
Course speaker and Mythodrama founder Richard Olivier on Shakespeare and what leadership lessons can be learnt from his work:
Shakespeare is a wonderful gift. He just had it, and the result of that genius is enduringly relevant and rich case studies about leaders and their followers. The treatment of Othello, or Katherine in The Taming of the Shrew, may be outdated in terms of societal changes but the human dynamics underneath the plays are eternal. Henry V is an inspirational leader; Julius Caesar concerns the themes of power, politics and influence; Macbeth explores the dangers of derailing behaviour; The Tempest seeks to understand the dynamics of change; and As You Like It enables positive change culture.

We asked actor, tutor and course speaker Yolanda Vazquez about what participants can expect to learn from the day:
The workshop is aimed at anyone who is leading or thinking of leading big projects as well as those who are interested in what it is that underlines the strategies or tactics of successful leadership. We use the story of Henry V as a case study. The participants will be able to place themselves as the protagonist of the story in order to experience the challenges that Henry faces and the strategies he uses to deal with them. Through this, and the exercises we provide, the participants will gain insights into what it means to inspire, motivate and build trust and well as other elements of inspirational leadership.
Our Inspirational Leadership course takes place on Tuesday 13 September, from 9.00am – 5.00pm. Find out more and book a place.
