Kent sociologists in the wild world of business
Spring 2012 Open Lecture Series
Speaker: Professor Rob Goffee and Professor Gareth Jones

Rob is a trained sociologist and has worked at London Business School for over 25 years. His interest in leadership comes from his research and teaching; from his leadership roles at the School and from running – with Gareth Jones – the consulting firm, Creative Management Associates.

Gareth’s career has spanned both the academic and business worlds. He began as a University academic in Economic and Social Studies at the University of East Anglia before moving to the London Business School, where he joined the Organisational Behaviour Group. He is currently Visiting Professor at the Instituto de Empresa in Madrid and at INSEAD in Fontainbleu. Gareth’s research interests are in organisational design, culture, leadership and change
