Blaire Palmer
Blaire Palmer is at the forefront of new thinking about what it means to lead in the 21st century and busts the myths of leadership and presents a more human, more authentic, more collaborative model of the leader of the future.
As one of the youngest female producers of the BBC’s flagship “Today Programme” Blaire spent a decade breaking stories and shaping the UK news agenda before her fascination with leadership and change led her to become one of the UK’s first corporate coaches.
Since then she’s become a world authority on leadership, writing 3 successful books on the subject in the process and is regularly quoted in the media.
Blaire is also a regular guest expert on TV and radio including BBC Radio 2's Jeremy Vine show, BBC Breakfast News, BBC Working Lunch, Sky News and BBC World.
Blaire is regularly quoted in the national press including The Financial Times, The Daily Telegraph, The Guardian, The Mirror and The Daily Mail amongst others.
Unlike many speakers on the subject her interest isn’t academic. Instead, Blaire draws on her insights over a decade and a half challenging, supporting and guiding leaders as they shape their company.
Blaire will give RPHA delegates unparalleled insight in to what’s happening in the most innovative Boardrooms in the UK and Europe, trends she’s spotting in her work and what actually works (and doesn’t) in real businesses and how you as school leaders can use this.
You will find yourself challenging everything you think you know about leadership and be inspired to drive change in partnership with your teams in schools.
