Insa Klasing, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of TheNextWe, distinguishes out among German women in technology. Her career took an unexpected course through development aid, consulting at Bain & Company, and running the DACH division at Kentucky Fried Chicken (Widely known as KFC), despite her wide education in economics, politics, and philosophy from Oxford. Insa broke down boundaries by becoming the first female division head at KFC, adopting a novel leadership technique following a riding accident that prioritized trust and freedom over control.

She now hopes to influence corporate mindsets with TheNextWe, a coaching software that employs cognitive behavioral therapy. Klasing's meandering career and devotion to different thinking establish her as a key player in Germany's digital environment, stressing innovation and unusual leadership along the way.
