Stefan Stern Fair or Foul - Lady Macbeth's Guide to Ambition

Most of us wrestle with daunting life-choice questions from time to time. What should I be aiming for? Am I being ambitious enough? Has an excess of ambition led me astray? The journalist and management writer who is Visiting Professor at Bayes Business School considers different aspects of ambition and its place in our lives. He asks: what does success mean? When is enough enough? And is Lady Macbeth right to suggest that only those with the 'illness' of ambition achieve the highest goals? Stefan draws on the major themes of the Scottish Play and discusses how they can be applied to modern life.
