“I refer to it as my ‘life-changing course’, as it provided me with skills, experiences, and connections that have guided my decisions in both my career and personal life.”
Alex, 2012 participant
“I genuinely can’t imagine what my life might look like had I not gone on the programme. One of the major shifts for me personally was realising that being a good leader is much more about collaboration and building strong relationships than being individually successful.”
Clare, 2013 participant
“The programme came at a pivotal point in my life — the junction between leaving higher education and entering the workforce. It helped me meet like-minded people, think about the type of colleague and leader I wanted to be, and to reconnect with nature.”
Flynn, 2014 participant
“Without LFG, I think young adults would be walking through life in a haze — going through the motions day-to-day without the clarity to pursue the very best their one, precious life has to offer.”
Guy, 2025 participant
“The programme gave me the chance to reflect on where I was in life, work and relationships. I left Norway with greater clarity of my personal values and how I wanted to live by these.”
Laura, 2025 participant
“The programme gave me the ability to pause and think, ‘Is this really the path I want to take in life? What do I care about?’, and then create strong connections with others that would be challenging to form in any other situation.”
Kathryn, 2017 participant
“The understanding and identification of my own values helped crystallise the roles I went for directly afterwards… I applied for a postgraduate programme that led to co-founding a social enterprise, helping me clarify a yearning ‘to lead disruptive change’. (The programme grants young adults) the most important conversations and provocative reflection that so often come too late through life experience for real impact, influence and hope at the young adult stage.”
Tessa, 2017 participant
“The programme has given me the confidence to embrace change. Even though a major life move wasn’t my choice, I now feel resilient and empowered to make positive choices that ensure this transition becomes a meaningful next step.”
Sophie, 2025 participant
“It gave me the confidence to pursue the career path that I was interested in but at the time did not yet have a clear path towards… The programme provided the reflection and resilience tools to navigate the pathway better and be confident in going for more challenging but rewarding routes.”
Robyn, 2013 participant
“I turned down a graduate role that didn’t align with my values, left a toxic work environment, and later took an unplanned career break. The programme taught me that leadership is not a title — it’s how you show up.”
Clare, 2013 participant
“Far removed from my familiar environment. It allowed space to interrogate, reflect and re-imagine what was driving me in life.”
