In Conversation with Gareth Southgate

Lessons in Leadership

An Evening with Gareth Southgate

In this rare evening, Southgate will take to the stage alongside a special guest host, to celebrate his new book Dear England: Lessons in Leadership.

Sir Gareth Southgate spent eight years in one of the highest-profile roles in the country: leading the England men’s football team on the world stage. 

In that time, he forged a unique management style, combining calm empathy with mental resilience, courageous integrity with strong accountability.  

His leadership at England propelled the men’s national team to its most sustained success in fifty years, reaching the 2018 FIFA World Cup Semi Final and the UEFA Euro 2020 and 2024 Finals. In the process, Southgate revitalised and reshaped the national team's footballing identity. 

He will discuss the experiences that shaped him: his leadership style, the principles that informed his decisions, and the grace under pressure that enabled him to perform under the most intense public scrutiny. 

Presented by Fane. Tickets for this event are booked through Fane Productions’ Box Office
