Håkon Njøten is a university lecturer at Kristiania University College, where he teaches self-leadership, including Norway’s most popular course in the field: Meaning and Mastery in Working Life.

His work has been featured in Morgenbladet and other media outlets.

Håkon holds a Master’s degree in Music Business Management (Leadership) from the University of Westminster, a postgraduate certificate in Higher Education Pedagogy from the Western Norway University of Applied Sciences, and is a certified yoga teacher.
