Our People
Our Colleagues
When we bring people into Kanso, we look beyond what they do to how they work - the mindset, care, and collaboration they bring to every challenge.
Our team is a flexible blend of permanent colleagues, fixed-term specialists, and trusted associates, all united by a shared commitment to organisational clarity, purposeful design, and meaningful partnerships.
Here’s a small selection of the people who make Kanso what it is.
What's In A Name?
Kanso is about creating simplicity, removing what’s unnecessary to reveal what matters most. It’s the practice of clarity: expressing ideas and shaping organisations in a way that feels natural, intentional, and enduring.
Yet simplicity is rarely simple to achieve. Organisation design can be complex, and even the best designs continue to evolve. We believe that the moment a design is delivered is often the moment it begins to grow, adapting as people, purpose, and context change.
Our name and symbol reflect this belief. The Kanso Enso represents clarity in motion, a circle of continual learning and renewal. It embodies the calm strength, balance, and elegance that sit at the heart of great design.
The Enso also reminds us that in the pursuit of Kanso — simplicity — change is constant. The circle represents continuity; its uneven form reflects the truth that progress is never perfect; and its openness allows for potential, growth, and renewal.
This is how we understand organisation design at Kanso, as an ongoing practice of clarity, evolution, and thoughtful craft.
