Stefan van Ryswyk, the founder of Shoshinry, is a former military and intelligence professional who has experienced a transformative journey. Inspired by the Zen Buddhist principle of Shoshin, meaning beginner's mind, Stefan discovered a new perspective that brought positive changes to his life.
Now, his business primarily focuses on the corporate sector, particularly in the field of health and wellness. However, Stefan's approach goes beyond surface-level improvements. He believes in fostering the best version of a business by nurturing its teams and individuals from the inside out. The remarkable results he achieves are seen as natural byproducts rather than the core objective.
Interestingly, Stefan has observed that businesses receive greater returns on investment when they prioritise investing in their people and taking a holistic approach. Thus, he enjoys collaborating with organisations that share this vision of wholeheartedly investing in their employees.
