WELCOME TO HUMANCORE

Programs for leaders who are ready to find a new meaning

Our vision

After many years in leading roles within the business sector, we, Michaëla Berglund and Martin Lindström, identified a growing need among leaders to find inner meaning. Many of those whom we meet have spent their entire careers striving for their current position. Almost as many have, at some point, asked themselves, ”Is this it?”. With eyes fixed on the horizon, it is easy to forget what we already have around us and to ignore what lies within — the things that truly matter. That is why we started HumanCore. 

We believe that greater self-awareness and a deeper connection to our inner core lead to well-founded and sustainable decisions. Through programs focused on inner development, HumanCore helps leaders pause, shift their focus inward, and challenge the established. We build networks of conscious leaders who, together, can contribute to positive and sustainable change — for themselves and the world we share. Always with an element of the unexpected.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT US
Without exaggeration, Core Leaders is one of the most amazing experiences I’ve ever had! I gained insights into how I am and how I function in interaction with others, both in my professional and personal life. On top of that, the unique opportunity to connect with new people in a completely "filter-free" way left a profound impression on me. Michaëla and Martin have a wonderful dynamic in how they engage with the group. Their knowledge and experience set the tone for our group and how we opened up to each other. Core Leaders has given me tools and insights that I will carry with me for the rest of my life. And as a bonus, I gained an incredible bunch of friends – hard to beat!

I had never previously “taken a journey within myself.” During the program, I got the chance to do just that, and it was an incredibly valuable learning experience for me. The participants often shared their collective experiences, which gave me many insights and a great deal of inspiration.<br /> I would say that the program was truly an eye-opener for me. I gained some absolutely invaluable insights. Thanks to them, my approach has changed, and I feel that this change has been for the better—both at work and in my personal life.

I heard about HumanCore from a couple of previous participants who said it was something completely different from the usual leadership programs. What they described sounded more like a cult (in a good way) than a course. They mentioned that at the beginning, you don’t share your last name or where you work, which felt like a relief – all titles and CVs would stay outside the room. It also turned out to be an odd but powerful mix of spirituality and brutal honesty, which suited me. Martin and Michaëla led us with a strangely perfect combination of sharpness and soul.

For me, it was a truly fundamental journey—one where I ultimately found my way back to who I really am as a person. By gradually peeling away several layers, I was able to see how my upbringing and life experiences had shaped me into the person I am today. I also learned to better distinguish between external expectations and my own inner voice, and as a result, I have become much better at listening to my own inner compass. I feel that this has made me a more confident and authentic leader.<br /> <br /> It was also an incredible experience to follow a group of people so closely over the course of a year. You get to know each other on a profoundly deep level in a short amount of time, and when you meet again, you immediately dive into honest, deep, and challenging conversations. Having so many genuine sounding boards in my life is an incredible privilege.

Even though I wasn't quite sure what I was getting myself into, I had high expectations. But I feel like I got more out of it than I expected. I gained a clearer understanding of who I am and what drives me. What I want from my life (mainly my professional life), when I'm at my best, but also what makes me become a less flattering version of myself.
