A three-day adventure experience in the jungles of Laos kickstarted a year-long leadership journey, WILD, which aimed to accelerate the number of women into executive leadership positions at Experian.
Experian APAC has a strong focus on diversity and want to ensure that their leadership pipeline has the best talent to successfully lead the region towards achieving ambitious targets.
WILD was designed to equip participants with sponsorship, advice, targeted development and support to accelerate the women's pathway to promotion. The Women in Leadership programme in the jungles of Laos focused on increasing courage and agility, fostering autonomy and resilience, and building strong relationships and networks.
WILD is a real and raw experience that lifts theory into reality. The programme’s opening three-day journey combined challenging adventure activities, coaching, deep reflection, ownership of the programme learning and Cultural Community Immersion.
- 99% recommendation rating when asked to what extent participants would recommend the WILD programme to colleagues

“Our delegates got huge amounts of value from their jungle experience in Laos, creating lifelong learning and friendships. We look forward to working with Impact in the future." - Sophie Smith – APAC HR Director
