Drawing on stories from fields as diverse as human rights in Syria, the UK prison system, Brazilian psychiatric care, architecture and business, Return on Humanity provides inspiring learnings and practical strategies that prove a more human approach to leadership and business will give us all a better future.

It is very easy to get caught up in a corporate world and forget that we have control over the way we behave with each other, the way we interact with the world around us, and we can’t operate in a vacuum. The stories of resilience, flexibility, collaboration and cooperation bring to life the fact that truly knowing who you are and how you behave allows each and every one of us to purposefully make our world, including our working world, better. - Sam Theobald, Chief People Officer, Next15

In today’s transparent world, power is finally shifting back to its rightful owners – customers and employees. In this world, there will be nowhere for companies to hide.
