Communication on Progress for the UN Global Compact | July 2012 to June 2013Education by EmpowermentThe motto of our volunteering initiativeAs an employer, Roland Berger encourages the commitment of our employees to doinggood, whether it is during official working hours or in their free time. So we supportand offer our staff volunteering opportunities on an individual basis or in groups. Aspart of the Education by Empowerment initiative, which was launched in early 2012,our own employees in Germany work with the scholars of the Roland BergerFoundation.Our preferred partner for the Education by Empowerment initiative in Germany is theRoland Berger Foundation. Established in 2008 by Honorary Chairman Prof. Dr. h.c.Roland Berger and endowed with EUR 50 million, the Foundation is committed tobuilding greater equality of opportunity in society. The foundation pursues two goals:human dignity and education – both for greater equality of opportunity.Thanks to our employees' volunteering efforts, we introduce gifted but underprivilegedscholars to a world of experience they would otherwise not discover through school."RB Knowledge Insights", for example, is a volunteering format in which Roland Bergeremployees from our Competence Centers organize mini-seminars and outings withscholars of the Foundation that reflect our experts' specialties. In the past, diverseevents have been organized on different topics such as "Telecommunications, IT andthe Internet", "Aviation and Aircraft Technology", "Stock Exchanges and the FinancialCrisis" and "Renewable Energy". Furthermore, in order to strengthen team spirit,Roland Berger employees and the young scholars undertake a scavenger hunt in theirhome town or take part in other leisure activities together.Beyond these volunteering activities, we support nonprofit organizations with ourconsulting know-how in pro bono projects. We have always had a strong commitmentto this philosophy and will continue to demonstrate our dedication in the future.© Roland Berger Stiftung / Astrid SchmidhuberFor more information visit:> www.rolandberger.com/company/corporate_responsibility/education_by_empowerment.html> www.rolandbergerstiftung.org25
