New professor to speak about leadership development in free lecture

The University of Chichester will host the inaugural lecture of Professor Rob Warwick on 20 March, discussing organisational management and leadership development.

The free-to-attend talk, titled ‘Learning from mistakes, successes and the ripples we cause,’ will explore the importance of nurturing learning opportunities in organisations.

“I will explore the importance of leaders exploring and reflecting together on what they do in the workplace,” said Dr Warwick. “I’ve always been fascinated by what happens in organisations, particularly the things we take for granted, tiny things that happen that create momentous change.”

Dr Warwick joined the University of Chichester in August 2013 as a senior lecturer after a career in organisational change and development. He has a doctorate in healthcare policy, focusing on the interaction between policy and frontline practice. This was gained whilst working as Head of Strategic Change for a large NHS organisation where he worked on a national healthcare initiative. He gained his professorship in management and organisational learning in September 2021.

The lecture is on Wednesday 20 March, 6.30-8.30pm. Refreshments available from 6pm. Free tickets for the event are available from Eventbrite.
