“The companies that survive longest are the ones that work out what they uniquely can give to the world – not just growth or money but their excellence, their respect for others, or their ability to make people happy. Some call these things a soul”.
Charles Handy
At Kairos, we’ve always wanted to make the world a better place. It’s our reason for being. It’s what gets us out of bed in the mornings. It’s not always the easiest thing to do, because change can be hard. But, if we can help an individual or an organisation be even just a little better than they were before, then that’s what we do.
We don’t do it alone though and we don’t arrive with all the answers or ready-made solutions. Instead, we start by building a relationship. Finding out what makes you tick. Getting to know the ins and outs, the highs and lows and everything in-between. There’s no one-size-fits-all solution because each situation, each individual, and each company is different.
Once we’ve identified challenges and opportunities we begin – together with you; co-creating a hard-working, innovative, tailor-made strategy built on integrity, trust and confidentiality at its heart.
We do this to effect real and positive change. Change in the way you operate and change to the bottom line.
At the end of it all, the world may still seem pretty much the same, but there’s no doubt, that you and your company will be in a much better place.
Let’s talk!
A solid foundation is critical for any business. The foundation is made up of two layers;
• Values & Ethics
• Vision & Mission
The foundation is the platform that supports four key pillars:
• Strategic Optimisation
• Talent
• Financial Acumen
• Systems
Each pillar is as important as the next
The word “Kairos” is a Greek word meaning, exactly the right moment or a time when conditions are perfect for crucial action.
For nearly 3 decades we believe that we have been able to come alongside leaders and their organisations and provide that “Kairos moment.”
Aristotle’s rhetorical triangle is what makes Kairos what it is today.
Logos – appeals to reason. The power of the spoken word
Ethos – this refers to our character
Pathos – our principles and values
At Kairos we strive to live this out daily. It’s not something we do, it’s who we are.
For more than a decade Kairos has played an active role in the education space. We believe that our youth are at risk, and we need to do something about it.
With the above in mind, Kairos played an active role in launching One Million Strong and more recently we have also assisted in setting up the Nolands Foundation.
Both these organisations are collectively reaching tens of thousands of young people in several countries. Adding value to the world where we work is part of our DNA – it’s our soul.
