Synopsis

Enduring lessons for leaders of any era

Utopia is Thomas More's seminal work describing the classic idea of a "people's commonwealth". Considered an important work for anyone holding or aspiring to a leadership role, this story set the bar for a broad range fields, providing the societal model for both real and fictional settings. Although written in 1516 during the Reformation, its lessons retain great value today -- while the word "utopia" itself has become a shorthand for "unrealistic", the actual framework described in the book presents a far more practical vision.
