Richard Barrett

Richard Barrett was born in Kingston upon Hull shortly after the second World War. He trained as an transportation engineer, obtaining a First-class Honours degree from Manchester University. After a successful career in engineering, working at the World Bank, he wrote 14 books on values, culture, leadership, spirituality, and psychology. He is recognised as a global thought leader in the field of leadership and values in business and society. His most popular book is “What My Soul Told Me.”

In May 2022, he felt the impulse to put down his pen and pick up his paint brushes. He paints exclusively in oils. His style of painting tends to vary according to the subject. Since that time, he has completed more than 150 paintings. Richard has two studios, one in Italy, not far from Florence, and one in London, near Swiss Cottage.

Between 2007 and 2021, he wrote 14 books. Richard's bestselling book is What My Soul Told Me.
