Why don’t we learn from history? With Dr Bruce Lloyd

Bruce spent over 20 years in industry and finance before joining the academic world a decade ago to help establish the Management Centre at what is now London South Bank University. He has a Degree in Chemical Engineering; a MSc (Economics) / MBA from the London Business School and a PhD (by published work) for his work on 'The Future of Offices and Office Work: Implications for Organisational Strategy'. Member of Chartered Management Institute’s 'Leadership Research Panel' 2000-1 and Panel on ‘Leading Change in the Public Sector’.

Since the late 1960's he has written extensively (about 200 published articles) on a wide range of strategy/futures related issues, including articles exploring the link between Leadership, Power and Responsibility and, more recently, the relationship between Leadership, Wisdom, Knowledge Management and Organisational Performance.

He has undertaken over 30 interviews for Leadership and Organisational Development Journal, as well others for The Tomorrow Project Bulletin. He was the UK co-ordinator for 'The Millennium Project' 1999-2005; a founder member of Shaping Tomorrow and a member of the Association of Professional Futurists. He has been active in the ‘futures industry’ since he first wrote a pamphlet on ‘UK Energy Policy’ in the 1960’s. He was also involved with the Long Range Planning Journal since the 1980’s and was its Review Editor for over 20 years.

In this episode of What Kind of Future, Bruce shares his experiment with Bard, the role of values, how strategy is a people subject, and what is the real learning and behavioural change?

A huge thank you to Bruce for our conversations and email exchanges. He inspires my thinking and you might get to see us speaking again in the future.
