Throughout the winter and spring of 2026, we will hold a Kierkegaard seminar that will run over 3 single days and a long weekend in Copenhagen.
The focus is on Kierkegaard’s view of self-knowledge and choosing oneself. Key texts are discussed. The subject’s path goes through joys and despairs.
And we relate this to questions of leadership and self-development. The seminar is held in collaboration with renowned Kierkegaard experts such as Pia Søltoft, Joakim Garff and, not least, the Søren Kierkegaard Research Center in Copenhagen.

Kierkegaard sets the agenda. In the middle of the 19th century, he sits in the King’s City and writes furiously, book after book. Philosophy and thinking will never be the same after the Dane’s writing frenzy. He influences Sartre, Woody Allen and King Harald.
The message is clear, liberating and frightening. There is no recipe for a rich life, a good marriage or supreme leadership. If that were the case, then tell me the recipe for how to fall in love? Or how to die well? No, what it is to be a human being must be experienced for oneself. The goal is not to become like everyone else, or to march in step with what is hip, cool and politically correct. If you slip unnoticed and comfortably into everyone’s company, you disappear into nothingness. So don’t think that the answer is to become a unique know-it-all. The goal is to become subjective, to dare to be yourself. The easiest thing is, however, the most difficult. The journey is not like a brisk mountain hike to the highest peak. The journey goes up and down. The journey goes through anxiety and despair.
This message is crucial for leadership. It touches on themes of wholeness and authenticity. But it also weighs in on the foundation of your own leadership and why you have chosen to take it on. Above all, Kierkegaard’s writings are about understanding yourself. As a human being, not as an ideal. As in motion, not as something static. As a choice, not as fate.
Many have followed us on leadership courses with Kierkegaard as an ingredient. Several have wanted more. We are now holding a separate seminar on Kierkegaard and his texts. We must understand Kierkegaard’s agenda, but also see how this affects us as people and leaders today. In the course, we involve famous Kierkegaard researchers and authors: Joakim Garff, Pia Søltoft and Søren Kierkegaard’s Research Center in Copenhagen.
The seminar is suitable for leaders and advisors, for people who are interested in Kierkegaard’s philosophy and psychology. We put Kierkegaard’s thoughts into our own time and the participants’ own challenges. Thus, the seminar constitutes both a professional immersion and practical development. You learn things that you can use directly in your own leadership and work.
You can find more information and practical details in the brochure attached at the bottom of the web page.
We hope you have the opportunity to join us!
