A Day in Paul Wordley’s Life
While talking about his daily routine, Mr Wordley said, “When working I spend a couple of hours on emails and conference calls, the timing of which depends on where in the world the client is. Then I will catch up with colleagues with whom I am working on matters. Usually, I will find some time to work on a particular matter or piece of work. My downtime is spent reading and exercising.”
Favourite Book
