General Sir Rupert Smith, is a retired British Army Officer of 40 years' experience. He commanded forces at every rank from Second Lieutenant to General in all five continents. On three occasions in the 1990s, he commanded formations of some 20,000 people and 750 fighting vehicles and airplanes to achieve strategic goals: in the Gulf War 90/91, in Bosnia 95 and in Northern Ireland 96-98. Additionally, from 1999 until 2001 he was the Deputy Commander of all NATO forces engaged in operations in the Balkans, notably Kosovo. On each occasion the objectives, the politics, the theatre, the opposition and the forces were different and often multinational. He found in exercising leadership at this level it is well to remember that: fame has no present and popularity no future.

Based on this experience he will talk about leadership, particularly strategic leadership.
