Turning Potential to progress

Brave Leadership

Kienbaum Study

Companies are currently in a permanent transformation process. Above all, digitization, new work and a shortage of skilled workers and – most recently – the economic consequences of the war in Ukraine and the energy crisis are forcing organizations to change. 


At Kienbaum, we are working intensively on how to master the multiple challenges of the new world of work. The key element here is courage. A crucial factor in promoting courage is leadership that is both strategic and ethical – Brave Leadership. 

65% of managers see it as a challenge to find the balance between

market-oriented business goals and employee needs


In our current study, we deal with the question of what concrete influence Brave Leadership has on the success of transformations and what framework conditions an organization must create so that Brave Leadership becomes an integral part of a sustainable corporate culture. 

The study also contains canvas models for your own reflection and concrete suggestions on how companies can implement a comprehensive Brave Leadership Transformation.
