Pinar Akiskalioglu, Punk Business School

In episode 7 Andrew talks to Pinar Akiskalioglu, the founder of Punk Business School, about what business leadership of the future needs to look like.

“I’m accused of being too romantic for business. But business is about humans helping other humans. There’s always a human element. Business leaders should know how to connect economic structures with human emotions.”

Pinar Akiskalioglu describes herself as a “business activist” who is working hard to be the kind of business leader the world needs today. She is the founder of the Punk Business School and her portfolio of purpose-led and human-centred companies includes the sustainable beauty “anti-brand” TAKK.

Andrew talks to Pinar about running a business that discourages overconsumption, her revolutionary approach to business education, which puts emotions and values at its heart, and what leadership of the future needs to look like.

Featuring:

Dr Andrew White, Senior Fellow of Management Practice, Saïd Business School, University of Oxford.
