経歴と著者の歩み

Public biographical material says little about Karen Morley’s early personal life, but it presents a distinctly interdisciplinary professional formation. She trained in psychology, business, and leadership, earning a Master of Psychology, an MBA, and a PhD in leadership, and became a registered psychologist. Before becoming widely known as an author, she built a career in leadership development and executive education, including senior roles in government and higher education. Those roles included responsibility for senior executive employment and development in South Australia and, later, leadership program design and delivery at Mt Eliza Executive Education.
