The KA•NA Point of View
Organizations don’t fall apart overnight.
Leaders don’t suddenly lose their edge.
Teams don’t disengage without cause.
Most of the time, they’re simply drifting — pulled off-center by competing demands, unclear priorities, and the speed of real work.
We exist to help leaders and organizations return to the center. To replace noise with clarity. To transform movement into meaningful progress.
KA•NA is where insight meets impact. This is where leaders regain traction. This is where organizations find their way forward.
About Our Founder
Jo Spurrier is known as the quiet voice that moves the room—a presence that blends calm clarity, deep listening, strategic insight, and grounded truth.
Her leadership DNA was shaped early during her time working with Disney. There, she learned that excellence isn’t an act of effort—it’s an act of intention. Every detail has a purpose. Every moment holds meaning. And service isn’t a task; it’s a discipline.
Her work spans more than 25 countries and includes partnerships with global organizations such as Disney, GE, SAP, Nike, the U.S. Navy, TSA, major universities, healthcare systems, hospitality brands, and professional sports organizations.
Jo’s expertise bridges service excellence, organizational communication, leadership development, and executive coaching. She sees what others overlook, hears what isn’t being said, and helps leaders turn insight into action—quickly, cleanly, and confidently.
KA•NA is the platform that brings her work together. Focused. Elevated. Built for what leaders need now.
The Story Behind KA•NA
KA•NA was created after more than two decades of helping leaders and organizations transform the way they work, serve, and lead.
Throughout her work around the world, Jo Spurrier noticed a consistent truth: organizations weren’t struggling because they lacked skill, talent, or care. They were struggling because they had drifted from center—pulled in too many directions, losing clarity without ever intending to.
KA•NA is the evolution of that insight. A distilled, elevated expression of Jo’s work rooted in one core belief: clarity changes everything.
This brand represents the next chapter of her leadership philosophy that originated in Berkana, place where leaders find direction, teams reconnect to purpose, and organizations rediscover their strongest center.
