Writer and philosopher, Alain de Botton, introduces The School of Life.

We spend years in school learning facts and figures but the one thing we’re never taught is how to live a fulfilled life. That’s why Alain de Botton founded The School of Life. The organisation has one simple aim: to equip people with the tools to survive and thrive in the modern world. And the most important of these tools is emotional intelligence: how do you understand yourself? How can you become more effective at work? What do you need to grow more serene and resilient? In this event, de Botton offers a crash course in emotional maturity. With practical advice and his trademark wit, he shows us a path to the better lives we all want and deserve.
