Stephen’s work centres on a recurring fascination with the relationships between people and companies, identities and careers, and love and necessity. His obsession with real working lives kept him wilfully restless until he crystallised his thinking and formed EMBLAZE® – the worklife experience specialists.
Often the quietest voice in a crowd, Stephen’s disposition to hear more and chat less has helped him to tune in to the frequencies of real life. Lives fraught with hurdles and anxieties, yet filled with hope, will and humanity. In his new book, Stephen expresses his deep-rooted ideas in the most imaginative way.
