7: Ben Wilson meets Emma Woollcott, Reputation Protection icon and Partner at Mishcon de Reya

Thank you for joining The World’s Greatest Lawyer, where my aim is to understand what makes the world’s greatest problem-solvers tick. This episode’s interview is with the incredible Emma Woollcott, Partner at Mishcon de Reya and Head of their Reputation Protection and Crisis Management Team. For me, her success in her role is proof that she has an attribute that myself and many others aspire to in their own lives: What the writer Ernest Hemingway referred to as having ‘grace under fire.’ It’s the value of maintaining one's dignity, poise, and humanity even when faced with the most harrowing and challenging situations. It's a testament to the strength of the human spirit and the depth of human character. It was an honour to interview Emma, discuss her career, hear her unique perspectives and learn more about her personal code when confronting challenges with courage and honour while advocating for her clients. Thank you for listening, and I hope you enjoy our conversation.
