An evaluation of the factors that underpin leadership wisdom.
It takes emotional intelligence to another level.
Angela Wagstaff, Head of HR, Richard Burbidge

Why do some business leaders like Warren Buffett and Andy Grove keep getting it right? And other leaders, despite an impressive education and outstanding levels of intellect, get it wrong by foolish decision making? The consulting industry has invented a pseudo-scientific vocabulary - "cognitive complexity", "emotional intelligence" - when perhaps it might easier to draw on the long-established language of wisdom. Wisdom is that combination of qualities - insight, judgement and maturity - that is becoming increasingly critical as leaders face greater uncertainty and complexity.
