About

A fun and thought-provoking experience for anyone who is a leader or would like to be. Join us for a highlights tour of our collection with a focus on leadership skills. 

What leadership style did Charles I demonstrate? What leadership qualities does it take to lead innovation and break new artistic ground? Would Leonardo da Vinci have made an outstanding leader and why? These questions and many more will be unravelled in this 90-minute experience looking at great works of art through a very different lens.
