I am Matthias von Kielmansegg , managing director of a foundation that is committed to good education in the digital transformation.

Responsibility is a value that guides me in life.

Because I must accept the consequences of inaction, looking away, letting things happen and accepting them just as much as if I actively do something.

Honesty is a value that constantly challenges me.

Because it can hurt, because it can cause harm, and because it is often unrewarded. Furthermore, people can often only survive by imagining things to be a little better than they actually are.

Self-criticism is a value that our society should embrace more.

Because we are often too influenced by preconceptions and assumptions. We are far less right than we think, and as a result, we often do others an injustice.
