"The best way to really understand the DNA of a country and a great opportunity to see yourself and the world from a range of new perspectives. I think I will be a better human being after my Quest experience. (Brazil Open)
Rogerio Ribeiro Vice President and Area Director, LatinAmerica, GSK
"The Quest was an extraordinary way to immerse myself fully into a new culture by connecting with a diverse group of people in a very meaningful way. It also gave me a new insight into ways that business can help deliver solutions to social problems in a way which is more sustainable than traditional philanthropy. I would recommend a Quest to anyone looking to develop themselves as a person or as a leader."

Leaders' Quest provided me with an extraordinary opportunity to meet with successful and influential leaders from all walks of life. We were able to explore deeply and intensely how we can individually and collectively use our experience, and the power and reach of our organisations, to positively impact the world we share.

It is hard to imagine a better way to immerse yourself in another culture that allows you both to appreciate its complexity and consider its implications for yourself, your organisation and your world. (Russia Open)
Senior Managing Director, Evercore Partners
I gained an understanding of leadership in life vs. just leadership in business, i.e. the need to develop an integral vision that is universal and holistic, applying energy and influence (including power & money) in such a way that powerful positive results can be achieved. I came to the realisation that I am only applying a small capacity of my energy and influence as a leader. (India Open)
Partner, PwC, leading the Governance, Risk & Compliance consulting practice
The Quest was intense, demanding, full-time and jam-packed with diverse experiences, encounters, sensations and stimulation. It was thought-provoking, challenging, inspiring and humbling. I was blown away by the initiative and engagement of most of the people we met, and was thankful too for those encounters that left me frustrated or angry – because each and every moment held a kernel of learning. The Quest serves best if you are willing to show up 100%, to stay fully present throughout and be willing to risk coming out the other end a changed person, with a bigger view on life and your place in it!
