Klanik Company Culture
Values, Human 1.0 management & Act'in Klanik
Authenticity in business encourages the fulfillment of each individual and the commitment of all, in the service of collective success.
Because Klanik is a learning community of individuals as passionate as they are fascinating, we make it a point of honor to share and transmit our knowledge with availability and solidarity. Guided by the strength of the collective, we commit with heart, build with desire, and move forward with passion to become, together, agents of change.
Understanding and attentive to the needs of the people around us, we know how to listen and show kindness in our interactions and in our work. We value honesty and transparency in favor of authenticity in order to create the space and conditions necessary for the fulfillment of all.
Experts in our field, we do not rest on our laurels and constantly cultivate a taste for challenge and risk-taking. Humble but ambitious, we question ourselves with rigor and proactivity to always surpass ourselves and perform beyond our goals.
Put Human back at the center
A model of sustainable performance
The Human 1.0 model
Model of management based on authenticity, it places professional and personal fulfillment at the heart of the organization. It is based on a virtuous circle: authenticity nurtures fulfillment, fulfillment generates commitment, commitment stimulates questioning, questioning opens up individual and collective development. It is an ecosystem that transforms the employee into an actor, and that makes the company a place of mutual, sustainable, and shared enrichment.

Human 1.0: enlighten you on the model
A founding vision
Human 1.0 is rooted in a very specific idea: reinvent the place of man in ESNs.
With this idea in mind, Johan Guedj creates KLANIK. The idea is not to "update" the human, but to create a context where he can be fully himself. The individual is not seen as a resource to be optimized, but as a complex, unique being, capable of producing the best when his identity and aspirations are respected.
A model centered on authenticity
Human 1.0 is based on a cardinal principle: authenticity is the engine of everything.
Being authentic means accepting that the diversity of people, backgrounds, and temperaments is a strength, not a variable to be corrected.
Managerial transparency, the right to question, demanding benevolence, and co-responsibility create a dynamic where everyone contributes to the collective while remaining themselves.
Be 'Société à Mission' - a reason for being
Embedding our commitments at the heart of our legal statutes
The proof of our Human 1.0 model
Being a “société à mission” means that a company formally embeds a social or environmental purpose into its legal framework, alongside its business objectives. It commits to pursuing specific mission goals, measuring their progress, and being evaluated by an independent body. This status - mostly know in France - reflects a long‑term commitment to creating positive impact while conducting profitable and responsible business.

What does 'Société à Mission' mean?
"Because finding one's place in the world of work is often complex, especially in the ESN sector, we encourage the authenticity and commitment of our employees, and contribute to a more inclusive society."
Our reason for being, as formulated above, embodies our identity. It extends our Human 1.0 model by giving it legal existence: authenticity, commitment, and inclusion are no longer internal values; they are statutory objectives.
Objectives stated in our bylaws
Becoming a Mission-Driven Company involves defining clear, measurable, and tracked objectives. Ours focus on:
#1 THE POWER OF BEING AUTHENTIC
Taking into account the needs of each employee and setting up an open framework that encourages them to be actors in their own development, in the company's commitments, in a dynamic that promotes both their fulfillment and collective success.
#2 FOR TOMORROW AND THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW
As a committed player in the digital sector, we share and disseminate our model to inspire a more human vision of work and contribute to the transformation of tomorrow's managerial practices.
These objectives are far from abstract: they permeate our HR policies, our social initiatives, our environmental commitments, and our customer relationships.
The proof points of the model
Act'in Klanik
At Klanik, we believe in the importance of cultivating everyone's potential. We encourage our employees to explore new horizons and expand their skills beyond their professional duties. We believe that the hidden (or not so hidden) passions and talents of our employees are a strength, for both them and the company. The Act'in Klanik (AIK) roles allow them to enrich their experience, as well as develop their network within Klanik. Each individual then becomes an actor in Klanik's development and directly sees the impact of their contribution.
Diversity & inclusion
Considering the needs of each employee and creating an open environment that empowers them to take an active role in their own development and in the company’s commitments, fostering both personal fulfilment and collective success.
