His dad, a man called Nigel who Linus hasn't seen since he was two, is a Ninja Warrior currently living in Japan. His dad fights crime and saves people. Linus' Headmaster is evil and ...

What implications does this have for the family, society, and the workplace? How can we change limiting patterns and empower ourselves to thrive? The world of work and life the way we ...
