“You can retire from a job, but don’t ever retire from making extremely meaningful contributions in life” Stephen Covey

At a leadership retreat held by Strategem+ in 2013, a profound concern expressed by most of the executives present was the perceived lack of principle centred, ethical leadership in business, banking and politics, where self-interest and greed seem to be the order of the day.

If we are to rebuild trust in our institutions and industry, so restoring national pride and productivity in the long term, it was felt that our ultimate challenge as leaders is to find ways of closing this leadership deficit.

As a result, our objective at FBI Solutions is to give back experience and knowledge to help develop and achieve excellence in principle centred, ethical leadership, as inspirational leadership is the foundation of greatness.

“Get involved in something that you care so much about, that you want to make it the greatest it can possibly be, not because of what you will get for doing it, but because it can be done!” Jim Collins
