Circularity is more than a framework. It’s a human, regenerative way of being, shaping how we live, lead and belong.
I help people and organisations build systems of meaning through connection.
From ego to eco
from waste to value
from isolation to ecosystem.
HARALD FRIEDL
Circular Economist
Harald Friedl is a global circular economist, speaker and advisor, activating
transformation across leadership, brands and organisations, helping them move from sustainability intention to systemic action.
As the former CEO of Circle Economy, he co-initiated the Circularity Gap Report, bringing the idea of circularity to a global stage. Today, through keynote speaking, brand partnerships, and his coaching programme Align & Break Open, Harald helps people and organisations reconnect profit with purpose, and design ecosystems that regenerate rather than extract.
With 120,000+ followers as a LinkedIn Top Voice and a Top 10 Green Creator globally, his work reaches audiences across 30+ countries, bridging strategy, storytelling, and human connection to accelerate the shift from ego-systems to eco-systems.
To listen to Harald is to be reminded of the vast possibility before us. It is to glimpse a future where circularity is not only legislated, but lived, where value is rediscovered, ecosystems restored, and winning reimagined.
Because, as he says: I care. We can.
SPEAKING & MASTERCLASSES
Transformative speaking that blends inspiration with practical strategy. Touching people and leaving them with a feeling of inspiration, clarity and practical advice.
When I step onto the stage, I step back into a circle, a community that longs to act together. It is not just about speaking, it is about creating a shared moment of transformation. I turn the space into a celebration of possibility, weaving stories that leave the audience inspired and energised whilst offering practical tools that can be applied into action, equipping people to bring new energy into their work and communities; to be the change as they leave the room.
