Personal Statement
I was trained as a historian in the stimulating atmosphere of Cambridge in the late 1960s and early 1970s, and came to work in Liverpool shortly afterwards. I have a long-standing interest in Latin America, especially Peru, Bolivia, Chile and Argentina, and now consider myself primarily to be an international business historian. I moved to the Management School when it was founded in 2002, having been both Director of the Institute of Latin American Studies and the first programme director for the MBA (Football Industries), which combined my love of sport, business and Latin America.
