‘Unfinished Business’ is the Henley Personal Development podcast. Hosted by Dr Chris Dalton, each episode is an invitation to join a conversation with an inspiring leader as they reflect on their lives, careers, and self-awareness. This is the personal side of management learning, which is a lifelong and emergent journey toward sustainable health and well-being for individuals, organisations, and wider community.



Many of those featured have graduated from Henley Business School’s top-ranked Executive MBA programme, and they represent a diverse set of nationalities, industries, job functions, and outlooks. What they have in common is a love of learning and passion for growth.



What barriers prevent us from reaching our full potential? How can fostering a healthy work-life balance enhance leadership? What role does personal growth play in driving organisational success? How can we contribute to a healthier community and environment? Join Chris and his guests as they tackle these questions, and more, as they navigate their unfinished business.
