Novak Druce Centre at Oxford

The Novak Druce Centre for Professional Service Firms at the University of Oxford’s Saïd Business School is focused on researching the internal and external dynamics of professional service firms, including the management of leading firms, the issues faced by people working within them, governance, leadership and innovation, and policy issues of concern to both clients and regulators.
In addition to research and publishing, the Centre hosts a seminar series highlighting academics and practitioners from around the globe, provides executive training and education, and sponsors an annual conference on the professions. The Centre also serves as a platform to bring together other related institutions and programs.
