A beautiful day here at Davos.

My thoughts on #WEF23 so far? Resiliency is evident.

The major markets in the world are getting inflation under control and companies are repositioning themselves for the long term.

#WEF23 #BetterWorkingWorld

The events in Ukraine the last week have been profoundly shocking to me and to everyone in this organization. The conflict and the human suffering this war is causing continues to be deeply tragic. In these difficult times, I have found hope in the ways our EY family has come together to help those suffering. 
 
Earlier today, we announced the difficult decision that the EY Russia firm will leave the EY global network and restructure as an independent firm. We have over 4700 colleagues in Russia who have worked side by side with our global, Eastern European and Ukrainian colleagues, and we thank them for their contributions over the years.
 
Our priority has always been, and continues to be, the safety of the 700 EY Ukraine people and actively supporting those impacted.
 
To date, we have helped almost 100 colleagues and their families leave Ukraine and settle in other countries, with more on the way to borders. EY people are providing logistical and financial support, translation and transportation services, and medical care and lodging assistance. The EY communities receiving refugees are collecting supplies, providing immigration assistance and connecting children with local schools.
 
I am so proud and inspired by the way the EY family has rallied to help colleagues and the wider refugee population. The worst of times brings out the best in EY people.
 
Our thoughts remain with those in Ukraine and in the broader region, and with EY people who have family and loved ones in Ukraine. We #StandwithUkraine and the global community calling for peace.

How many people can you fit in a virtual meeting?

How about 365,000! I really enjoyed connecting with EY people from all around the business on this week’s all-people webcast. And importantly, finding out who you're all rooting for in the World Cup.

Thank you also to our co-presenters. A pleasure to have you with us – in-person and virtually:

#BetterWorkingWorld

I am very proud to share that 1033 people worldwide have been promoted to partner at EY – the largest-ever cohort. This is a testament to how strong EY is globally.

Each one of these promotions is an exceptional milestone in someone's career, and they have reached it supported by their colleagues, mentors and families.

Congratulations to all our new partners! #BetterWorkingWorld

Please join me in congratulating Amy Brachio on becoming our new Global Vice Chair – Sustainability.

Increasingly, our clients are asking us for help in achieving their sustainability goals. At EY, we also have our own sustainability strategy to manage and continuously improve. Amy will spearhead both of these critical agendas.

I have no doubt that Amy's 25 years of advising global companies will bring excellent momentum. Not to mention that she is fresh out of Hult International Business School, with an EY Masters in Sustainability.

Amy - I have every faith in you and we are all so glad to have you on board. Let's do this!
