Wild at heart · Wise by choice
You were never built to be tame.
Five careers. One thread.
Civil engineer at 21, the only woman in her year. Physics teacher. Founder of a wealth management firm built to £500m under advice and sold, then CEO of a global headhunting group through the 2008 crash. Now a board adviser to chief executives, a speaker, and the author of FERAL: someone who has actually run things, telling the truths most keynotes are too polite to say.
