Hi, my name is David Wetton and welcome to the Conscious Leadership Now Video Podcast

The intent of this Podcast is to encourage you as a leader to embrace Conscious Leadership, by giving you access to some of the world’s leaders in the field of Conscious Leadership, both in practice and in thought.

Today my guest is Helena Clayton

Helena is researching 'Leading from love': What might be possible if we put more love at the heart of our organisations? Could love – whatever that might look like – be the difference? Why is love such a difficult concept to explore for leadership and organisations?

You can read a Pdf copy of her report 'Leading with Love' - award winning research report with Roffey Park Institute here:
