The Ulysses programme was designed as an innovative response to the core challenges businesses face in an increasingly interconnected global world. Since the time of its launch in 2000, the programme has been at the forefront of the firm’s efforts to define and develop the concept of responsible leadership.
The Ulysses programme’s key objectives are:
- To develop responsible leaders who are capable of assuming senior leadership roles in a high performing organisation, at both a territory and international level.
- To build a global network of leaders who understand the importance of values in developing trust-based relationships with a diverse range of stakeholders and who can create a
sustainable brand that is differentiated by the quality of these relationships with our clients, our people and the broader community.
- To help our leaders to understand the changing role of business in influencing the economic, political, social and environmental well-being of communities and markets across the world, and our responsibility to work in collaboration with a broader group of stakeholders to achieve sustainable success through responsible worldwide business practices.
- To develop a model of leadership for PricewaterhouseCoopers that will enable the next generation to lead responsibly within a global networked organisation, and to position this responsible leadership model as the foundation of all development programmes across the firm.
Ulysses is a learning journey that is helping to drive the personal transformation of our leaders to enable them to provide our people, our clients and ultimately the community with an experience that is based on shared values, understanding and collaboration and which is focussed on delivering responsible and sustainable solutions.
