Dr Adrian Bailey
Independent Churches' Associate Chaplain
Adrian is a senior lecturer in Management based in the University of Exeter Business School. Since 2013 he has convened the Business School Prayer Space to provide staff with a place and time for spiritual reflection.
Far from perfect, he confesses to being an incurable perfectionist and values being part of a community that regularly reminds him of the love and compassion of God. He is passionate about social justice and the inner transformations of character that are necessary to sustain a faithful witness to Jesus Christ.
In his teaching and research he explores business models that strive to embody practices such as redistribution of wealth, democratic governance and ecological sustainability – most notably co-operatives and social enterprises. He is a member of Belmont Chapel, a co-founder of the Belmont Eco-Church group, and a husband, dad, cyclist, vegetable grower, baker of bread, retired farmer and prolific tea drinker.
