"The experience offered me so many opportunities I would never have in real life and the facilitators pushed us hard to realise our potential. The most important thing I’ve taken away from Outward Bound is real experiences that prove to me I can do more than I think I can and often the only limitation is me, my mind-set and my confidence."

“Outward Bound was a decisive moment. I’ve never been the best goal setter, instead grabbing opportunities and seeing where they take me. Outward Bound forced me to make some hard decisions [and gave me the courage, confidence and drive to go for partnership at my commercial firm]."

"Outward Bound taught me a lot about myself and how I operate. It gave me three key things; opportunities, tools and time. Opportunities to test my leadership skills in real life, tools to use in my leadership practice and concentrated time to reflect on what kind of leader I want to be."

"This experience gave me a big shift in perspective. For five days, I lived and worked closely with eight teammates and three coaches. Each of us came from very different backgrounds, life stages and personalities. Everyone showed up as their true selves - their strengths, worries, and fears. I realised that differences aren’t just okay - they make a team stronger."
