The result exceeded my expectations. Everyone has said how much they both enjoyed the experience and learnt from it. It provided the perfect platform to launch our new Community strategy. It also really strengthened the leadership team itself by mixing people up and by sharing new experiences.
Antony Jenkins, CEO, Barclays Retail and Business Banking
A great experience that is incomparable to any other corporate or private programme I have been part of. A strong opportunity to reflect on one's own life, work and behaviour. An experience that anybody should go through who is planning to do business with, set up an office in, or just needs more understanding of, a country or region.

The power of reflection was much stronger than I had ever imagined in my 30 year career with the firm so far. If we are not able to understand, adopt and implement the concept of responsible leadership within PwC as soon as possible, we will devise our own global values/code of conduct and put ourselves at great risk!
