This event explores the question "What makes a good professional?" from a number of angles. Of particular interest is assessing the correct balance between public benefit and private gain from professionals. Michael Parker CBE offers a 'provocative' analysis of just what makes a good professional so good (and irritating!). The transcript and downloadable versions of this lecture are available from the Gresham College website: http://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/good-professionals-are-annoying Gresham College has been giving free public lectures since 1597.
