KUNO Leadership Community is composed of leaders who share our philosophy. Our fundamental values and ideas act as guiding principles for purposeful leadership. Our philosophy encompasses our way of thinking about the world, business, leadership, sustainability, technology and globalisation and the connection between them.
As a purposeful leader you cannot separate economic growth from a positive impact on the world. You must consider your impact on all stakeholders. This is essential for long-term success.
Humans before machines - always. In this Digital Era, purposeful leadership that understands both the importance of human nature, as well as the usefulness of technology as a tool, is more important than ever.
All leaders have a responsibility to society, beyond borders. Openness, understanding and accepting differences is vital to create a global world.
