Background

About Philipp Markl

Leading with purpose: shaping the future of leadership, culture and human transformation. I’m not your traditional people manager. I lead through ideas, clarity, and connection. As a Senior Manager HR Culture & Change at SMS group, I drive strategic initiatives that help leaders grow, cultures evolve, and organizations move forward. All grounded in values and guided by purpose. I designed and implemented a global Value-Based Leadership Certification (certified by EBS University), developed human-centered change frameworks, and helped position HR as a strategic partner across cultures. My work is where psychology meets strategy, where leadership meets transformation. I speak, moderate, design, consult – always with a passion for human impact, clarity of thought, and strategic simplicity. As an Executive MBA candidate (Durham–EBS), I’m constantly learning and exchanging with peers across industries and continents. Let’s connect if you care about leadership, culture and the kind of change that lasts.
