Dr Eliat Aram (TIHR CEO) used a recent TIHR Lunchtime talk session to open up a heart-to-heart conversation about the ethics of love and the freedom in fearlessness. Or the freedom of loving fearlessly.

Eliat joined the Tavistock Institute ten years ago. Her first leadership task was of directing the Leicester conference. She later became the Tavistock Institute’s CEO. Over the years she has learnt tremendous amount on the art of management and certainly feels there is still much to learn, but there is one thread that has run through her leadership development journey that she is only now beginning to own. The thread is simple and complex; it is the unfathomable notion of love.
