  Eliza Filby

  Historian of Contemporary Values and Visiting Professor, King’s College, London

  Eliza is a speaker, writer and consultant specialising in a history of Generations and contemporary values. Eliza looks at how the people’s values and behaviours are changing and the implications for politics, work, consumption, society and economics. She studies the evolution of generations rather than lazy generalisations; nuance and history is key. Her job is to differentiate between what is age-related and what is generation-specific. Eliza published her first book God and Mrs Thatcher: The Battle for Britain’s Soul in 2015 based on her PhD. When writing about political change in the eighties, she became more and more interested in the generation that were born in that era i.e. Millennials. Out of which, spun a research career into generational change. Eliza has written for the major broadsheets in the UK from The Guardian, Times, Telegraph as well as reviewed for the Financial Times. She loves the thrill of a live broadcast and has frequently appeared on the media from BBC News to Fox News as well as radio programmes. Eliza also regularly appear on the Sky News Evening Paper Review Show. 'Research for research sake is lovely but I relish sharing my knowledge with people and organisations for whom it has particular value and I’ve been lucky to speak at and work with some truly impressive companies both big and small. I have debated at the Oxford Union, sparred at the Conservative Party Conference, delivered Powerpoint slides at Buckingham Palace'.

  Ben Lyttleton

  British football journalist and author

  Football journalist and author Ben Lyttleton understands what we can learn about the most important aspects of work and life from the world’s most popular sport. In his book Edge: Leadership Secrets of Football’s Top Thinkers, he interviewed some of football’s topvcoaches, including Thomas Tuchel and Ralf Rangnick, to learn how they foster talent and build empathy within a team, help individuals adapt in order to realise their potential, and find power in developing a social purpose. Ben works with football and NBA teams and their coaches to help them develop elite performance and discover their own competitive edge. Through extensive interviews with the biggest names in the game, exclusive behind-the-scenes access to insiders at Premier League giants Liverpool and Chelsea, and a life spent watching some of the most successful (and not-so successful) teams and managers, Ben has developed a comprehensive picture of leadership, teamwork and talent improvement. With his personal connection to some of the biggest names in sport, Ben illustrates the surprising and insightful aspects of leadership and teamwork in football whilst making it relevant and enlightening even to those that aren’t fans of the beautiful game.
