Kanwal Kaul
India
Kanwal Kaul (KK) is a hospitality management graduate and Harvard alumnus (General Management Program), with leadership experience across various large multinationals. A global citizen shaped by his roots in Kashmir and upbringing across India, KK is passionate about challenging generational preconditioning, amplifying human potential, and creating space for mindful living in corporate environments. He draws deeply from Buddhist philosophy and a lifetime of seeking meaningful connection between work, purpose, and self.
His journey has been one of grit and relentless curiosity — marked by the loss of both parents at a young age, the challenges of financial hardship, and the determination to forge his own path. From working at a fast-food chain to holding leadership positions in global corporations, and later pursuing executive studies at Harvard Business School, his life story spans continents, industries, and cultures.
A practitioner of Buddhism and a keen student of mythology, he blends spiritual inquiry with corporate insight, calling himself a “Corporate Monk.” His philosophy rests on balancing contradictions—discipline with rebellion, corporate success with inner peace, logic with heart.
An extrovert turned “selective extrovert,” he values authenticity, mindful living, and protecting one’s energy. His dog Cookie remains his source of unconditional love amidst a world of conditional relationships.
Through his book Burn The Script – A Mindblowing Gamechanger, he shares his philosophy and lived experiences, inviting readers to question societal expectations, embrace individuality, and walk untamed paths with courage.
