Lucy has been AGL’s Group Chairman since October 2018 but part of the life of the company for far longer: as a coach, specialising in younger clients; as an NLP consultant; and as a photographic artist. The driving force behind both our Young Talent Programme and our partnership with LookUp Live, she has a deep and longstanding interest in young people, their education and the special challenges they face in the digital age.
In addition to her work with AGL, she has taught in apartheid-era townships in South Africa; worked, just after the fall of Ceausescu, in one of Romania’s then notorious orphanages; and founded, and for many years led, a successful South London nursery school.
A former student of the International Center of Photography in New York, she was some years ago commissioned by AGL to produce a series of massively enlarged Polaroids, The Word on the Street, that would help dramatise our worldview.
