The fourth Maritime Public Leaders' Programme was a unique
opportunity for me to spend a joyous week with many spiritually'lit'
people, participants as well as presenters, who are also practical
and pragmatic business leaders. I came away with a renewed sense
of purpose, and a greatly expanded personal network of dynamic
participants. Once more thank you for putting on such a wonderful
event. That was an experience that will impact the rest of my life.
