In February 2026, the Vorreiter spent a moving weekend in Tirana, Albania, as part of our Leadership Talks.
Keynote · Integrity in difficult structures
In an interview with Toni Gogu, Minister of State for Relations with Parliament, the question was how a leader can exert healthy influence on an entire country in entrenched and partly corrupt structures. Albania has doubled its economic output in ten years – despite high interest rates, slow courts and corruption. What helps: deep reflection on the core of the matter, courageous like-minded people and publicly explaining your own motives.
“Integrity is a muscle that needs to be trained every day.” – Toni Gogu
Takeaway: Integrity is a muscle that needs to be trained every day.
