At the sixth OSW Learning Lunch, Professor Arran Stibbe joined us to give an engaging, in-depth overview of the question What is Econarrative and how does it connect to ethical leadership?

He has an academic background in both linguistics and human ecology and combines the two in his research and teaching.
