We are delighted to invite you to our very first Creative Leadership Salon in Berlin. Looking back on 16 Salons in Munich, this step has been close to our hearts for some time. We begin this new chapter grounded in two of our core beliefs: there is always a philosophical dimension to business. And that dimension is about setting things in motion. It is decisive. We like to see it this way: a business without an ethos is like a scientific paper without footnotes. It defies its own relevance by lacking a relationship with the world it inhabits. That is why we have invited philosopher Nika Wiedinger to inaugurate the Berlin stream of our Creative Leadership Salon series and to lead us into the engaged dimension of philosophy in business. It is also why we will be gathering in a space that embodies unlikely disruption and, in doing so, offers plenty of cues for exploring creative leadership: the home of a law firm with high entrepreneurial intelligence.
