Most leadership narratives are a graveyard of management theories—expensive, motivational fluff that evaporates the moment it encounters market friction. On 30 March, 2026, the rules change. Kamil Toume has executed a total structural pivot from the 2025 blueprints to release the definitive 2026 Engineering Manual. This is not a book aimed at convincing you that […]
Kamil Toume has executed a total structural pivot, evolving the 2025 blueprints into the definitive 2026 Engineering Manual. This release upcoming on the 30th of March represents a clinical maturation designed to solve the systemic leadership scarcity and the “fluff” currently incinerating value within the 99% Median. This manual is restricted territory, engineered exclusively for […]
The true deficiency in modern business is not a scarcity of “Chief Purpose Officers.” It is an alarming abundance of executives who have abandoned the study of authentic leadership. They are masters of finance, supply chains, and Six Sigma, yet utterly illiterate in the critical subjects of the human condition, inner self-awareness, the societal contract, […]
Imagine proposing to someone after a 45-minute coffee date. You don’t know their values, how they handle stress, or what their “DNA” really looks like. It sounds absurd, yet this is exactly how most companies approach recruitment. We treat hiring like a transaction when it should be a courtship. A true professional partnership—much like a […]
For decades, corporate structures have mirrored an age of rigid hierarchy—where authority flowed from the top and innovation often stalled at the bottom. But the modern age demands something different. Today’s most forward-looking organisations flatten their hierarchies, empowering people at every level to think, decide, and lead.

Before you even consider installing a Chief Purpose Officer, you must perform a ruthless audit of your organisation’s structural readiness. If your enterprise pulse beats for profit alone, the answer is a definitive “no.” A purpose-maker cannot survive, let alone thrive, in a system engineered solely to count transactions rather than contribute value. This is […]
Over the past three months, we have embarked on a global search to identify the top 1% of organisations whose purpose, culture, and measurable impact are driven by genuine meaning—not marketing. Along this journey, we uncovered a sobering truth: behind the many purpose statements and polished certifications, too many companies still fall short of the […]
Most of what the world calls “leadership” is merely Management in Disguise. In the current landscape, 99% of those occupying high-level offices are not leading; they are merely babysitting the decline. They are biologically wired for the Managerial Brain—obsessed with tracking lagging KPIs, enforcing standard operating procedures, and facilitating meetings that act as a tax […]
The Chief Purpose Officer’s role is far too important to be folded into the CEO’s overflowing plate. The CPO isn’t totally separate from the Chief People Officer or the Head of HR — in many ways, they bridge both. The CPO is tasked with: To achieve this, a Purpose Department should exist — a dedicated […]
We live in a world saturated with leadership titles — CEOs, Directors, Chief This and That — and most recently, Chief Purpose Officer. At first glance, this evolution seems promising. After all, the rise of “purpose” in corporate vocabulary should reflect a deeper shift in how we lead, right? Not quite. Dressed for Purpose, Wired […]
