Tim Munden’s background

Most CEO and Leadership teams want to know how to create an organisation culture that attracts, retains and energises people to deliver strong results. They want to know how to embed the leadership that delivers high performance in turbulent times. Tim Munden has 20 years of experience from which to share answers to these questions, and is passionate about enabling organisations to win as their people thrive.

As an award-winning Chief Learning Officer at Unilever, Tim was responsible for developing Unilever’s approach to leadership in the 21^st Century, enabling ongoing business growth and transformation, and the realisation of Unilever’s purpose. He launched Unilever’s “discover your purpose” workshops, which over 56,000 Unilever employees have completed, deeply embedding purpose in the culture.

Tim was also responsible for employee wellbeing, an area the company is widely acknowledged as leading edge, and has also actively campaigned for the elimination of stigma about mental ill-health, cofounding the Global Business Collaboration for Better Workplace Mental Health.

Prior to being CLO, Tim was HR Vice President for Unilever UK & Ireland, a 2.5bn Euro business, where he delivered the largest restructuring in the business to that point.

Tim has worked in global roles as well as across Europe and the Americas, assignments including setting up new organisations and turning around under-performing ones.
