In Crabwise: The Theatre of Leadership, Roffey Park Programme Director Ben Baginsky draws inspiration from Peter Brook’s seminal work The Empty Space to offer a refreshing perspective on leadership. Ben explores Brook’s four types of theatre—Deadly, Holy, Rough, and Immediate—and develops a framework for leadership to meet the complexities and challenges of today’s world.
Rather than viewing leadership as a hierarchical role bound by convention, we are encouraged to embrace a more fluid, dynamic, and purposeful approach, with leadership as an ongoing process of movement, where progress is not always linear, but shaped by adaptability, humility, and the pursuit of meaningful change.
