Christan Hiscock is on a personal mission to change the conversation in the business
world, moving away from the pursuit of success, to focusing on fulfillment instead.
Because if you’re fulfilled, success is a given, but not so much the other way around.
You’ll often hear him saying, “You mean more than you know,” because he believes that
as people learn to understand their worth, their fears fade, and amazing feats become
reality. He considers this the foundation for all his achievements as the Co-Founder and
CEO of Kardia and leader of 16 thriving companies.
Through Kardia, which means heart in Greek, Christan is determined to bring more
heart into the business world.
