According to Jick and Peiperl (2011) Price Waterhouse Coopers (PwC) hired James Shaw and Amy Middelburg to help them with their partnership with AIESEC. Each business was categorized by its own set of problems. Their former organization’s budget was smaller along with their previous leadership roles. At PwC both of them are at the bottom in a bigger company, and are dealing with problems with the government.
