The idea behind Fifty Lessons is a simple one. We ask the world´s most successful business people to tell us the most important lessons they have learnt in the course of their careers and to talk about what they are passionate about.
The result? A bank of compelling video stories ranging across the spectrum of business life: from the fine art of commercial negotiation to the perilous waters of organisational change, in both the private and the public sectors.
