Message from the Chairman

The year 2022 was very challenging for us. We started with an expectation of growth, but the scenario changed at an enormous speed. As a result, we adapted to protect the Firm so that we can continue to put into practice our strategy of being leaders in the transition to a low-carbon, circular, regenerative and inclusive economy.

We grew very significantly in all our business areas, which showed the resilience of the Firm and our teams in the face of challenges. We continued to invest in the development and well-being of our people and in inclusion, diversity and equity. We also focused on integrating ESG (environmental, social and governance) aspects into our offerings, to improve our internal management and support our clients in their change processes.

One of our learnings from the last cycle was that we need to ensure that our team gets the best out of the new model of hybrid work, which had a big boost in 2022 with the inauguration of three digital offices and our new headquarters office in São Paulo. Another was understanding that, in this universe in which relations coexist in virtual and face-to-face spaces, we need to strengthen interaction between our professionals and between them and our clients.

We present here the main actions we carried out in 2022 to help Brazilian society, our professionals and our clients to be successful in a business environment marked by change.
