Guest: James Bellerjeau. James was General Counsel of an S&P 500 company for two decades, and later Head of its Global Sustainability Program. He served as President of the Association of Corporate Counsel Europe and writes the Career Path column for the ACC Docket, the magazine for in-house lawyers. He teaches at the University of Zurich and is an executive coach for newly promoted general counsels. After working more than 80 thousand hours in less than 30 years, James feels like he’s earned a break. He is currently focused on applying Stoic principles to live a good life and achieve satisfaction – you can check some of his thoughts on his blog klugne.com, in which he’s currently publishing a modern version of Seneca’s Moral Letters to Lucilius. We talk about the human nature, behavior change, planning for the unforeseen, overcoming bias, the future of work, ESG, and how to live a good life.
