Chris Hirst is a change agent, author of 'No Bullsh*t Leadership' and Global CEO of Havas Creative leading more than 10,000 people across all Havas' global territories. After a decade in CEO positions he has a proven track record of leading transformation - guiding his businesses to deliver reputational change, growth and a culture of enduring success. Chris went to his local state secondary school in Northumberland, before heading to Brasenose College Oxford to study Engineering Science. After an apprenticeship at Pilkington Glass in St. Helens he embarked on (an unlikely) career in advertising. Chris' breakthrough moment came when he went to Harvard Business School in 2008. It was there that he developed his unique and now proven, approach to leadership. He believes in the principles of an open culture - where people are given permission to thrive and take risks - accepting that mistakes are a necessary part of success. In 'No Bullsh*t Leadership: Why the World Needs More Everyday Leaders and Why That Leader is You', Chris explores his theory that leadership is not some special club, open only to elites. It's not a gold star given to those with fancy titles and expensive degrees. Leadership is what we all try to do every day. He is a regular commentator and contributor in press and broadcast including the Evening Standard, Financial Times, Sky News, ITV News, The Politics Show and more.
