Autorenporträt

Dr Tom Edwards has a PhD in Behavioural Neuroscience from Monash University, Australia where for several years post his doctorate he lectured. Upon realising that learning about the brain says little about our shared humanity, Tom went back to further study, gained a Master degree in counselling and shifted his research interests. He has since divided his time between teaching, seeing clients and research. He is currently an accredited supervisor with the Australian Counselling Association. Tom has published in respected international journals and spoken at multiple national and international conferences. More recently, Tom and his co-author Cos have set-up Natural Intelligence Pty. Ltd. (www.naturalintelligence.com.au) as a way to teach professionals how to use virtue-based insights to optimise individual and corporate outcomes. Tom's particular interest is the virtue of hope.
