Hanno Renner (Co-Founder & CEO, Personio) — announces Personio's B-Corp certification, credits Incorruptible: 'a book about what it really takes to build a mission-driven company'

Hanno Renner — Co-Founder & CEO of Personio, Europe's largest HR software company — announces Personio has officially become a Certified B-Corp and threads the announcement through Incorruptible. Frames the summer read as timely because Personio has spent five years working toward the exact principles it describes: employee equity, an outside voice at the board table backed by a whistleblower system, supplier fair-labor vetting, and €4M+ granted through the Personio Foundation. 330 likes within hours.

“Personio is officially a Certified #BCorp 🌱 Over the summer, I read Eric Ries’ 'Incorruptible', a book about what it really takes to build a mission-driven company. It was a timely read, because for the past five years, our teams have been working toward a goal that puts those exact principles into practice. When we set out on this journey half a decade ago, we knew we didn't want a superficial badge. We wanted a framework that would rigorously challenge us across governance, workforce policies, environmental impact, and how we serve our community.” — Hanno Renner on LinkedIn
