PSA’s experience in international management development led to the foundation of Germany’s first national "English Public Speaking Competition" (from 1995 to 1998) - an annual event co-sponsored by The Financial Times (Europe) and the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung and with proceeds being donated to the Multiple-Sclerosis Association.

PSA has run innovative post-merger and key-account customer workshops throughout Europe, a major international company has evaluated PSA customer workshops as among the most successful marketing initiatives in the company's history.
