Karl Burrows Speaker Biography


Karl Burrows believes that authenticity is the essence of Leadership. But authenticity is far from simple because it means a high level of self-awareness, an understanding of how ego impacts our sense of identity and an ability to set ego aside. Being connected to your authentic self means you can respond to the demands and challenges of leadership from a deeper place, more connected to your core values and sense of self.

He is a New Zealander of Maori and European descent and utilises tools from his Maori culture to help people make deeper connections, build trust and embrace values leading to improved team performance. Karl has a corporate background as a lawyer and negotiator, and has an MBA from Cranfield University, but it is the teaching of haka (the pre-match ritual performed by the All Blacks) along with its implicit learnings and deeper meaning that has impacted audiences around the world over the last 15 years.

UNIFYING TEAMS
Team means family – loyalty, respect and putting others before self.

AUTHENTICITY AND HUMILITY
Understanding authenticity, identifying ego, leading from the core authentic self. Humility means staying grounded, even when you are at the top of your game, so you can always find ways to improve.

PURPOSE
