Experience Statements

"
I attended a conference in Kuala Lumpur organised by OWW Consulting, the theme of which was "responsible recovery from the global crisis... the conference also contained some striking presentations that set the debate about recovery in a different context ... This was a different kind of business conference. The poor were discussed, a lot. The role of faith-based finance dominated an entire session. The environmental crisis was never far from the discussion. This is a serious and pressing agenda for managers. It is important stuff.
