The DO School

Founded in 2014 by renowned social entrepreneurs, Florian Hoffmann and Katherin Kirschenmann, we are a multinational team of around 40 passionate individuals. From our offices in Berlin, Hamburg, New York and Hong Kong, we run various programs and engagements in over 27 countries for participants from over 92 nations. 

Our mission is to turn ideas into action quickly and catalyze new solutions. We encourage people to see opportunities in a fast-changing world, then equip them to act upon them, to create success and effectively shape the world they want to live in. We believe that the value of what we all do is best measured by its benefit to others. This is the essence of purposeful Doing.

We believe the future success of companies and organisations depends on their ability to adapt to constant, rapid changes. We work to get ahead of these changes and shape them through:

• New business models that create value for both shareholders and society
• People equipped to act quickly and with a clear purpose
• New ways of working with each other within and beyond internal structures
• Openness to divergent ideas, and the ability to draw on outside expertise/experience
