Abstract: | On the face of it, actors and business executives don't have an awful lot in common. The customary image of the executive - serious, suit-wearing, briefcase-carrying and goal-oriented does not coincide much with that of the flamboyant, hedonistic and prone to calling everyone "darling" or "luvvie". But, getting away from such stereotypes, there are a suprising number of arenas of overlap, where the techniques and skills of the actor have a great deal to offer the executive. |
