Building, Educating, Respecting
At KnowBe4, people come first. We believe that an inclusive and empowering culture fuels innovation, creativity, and high performance. Creating space for people to show up fully leads to stronger teams, deeper connections, and greater outcomes across the organization.
Our people bring a rich range of perspectives, experiences, and ideas that shape how we work, connect, and serve our global community.
The strength of our culture lies in our team's collective knowledge and lived experiences. By embracing this, we create products and solutions that reflect the people we serve and the world we’re part of.
At KnowBe4, this is a continuous commitment shaped by three core principles:
Building
Building a workplace culture rooted in inclusion means being intentional about how we grow and connect as a global team. As we expand, we continue to assess how we collaborate, communicate, and support each other to ensure our culture remains strong, inclusive, and people-focused.
1Educating
Education is key to building a workplace centered in respect, understanding, and collaboration. Our executive team actively supports and engages with our Employee Resource Groups, recognizing the important role they play in shaping company culture, informing policies, and guiding community efforts. Through ongoing learning and open dialogue, we aim to create an environment that values each person’s voice and experience.
2Respecting
Respecting the many identities, experiences, and perspectives that shape who we are as a global workforce is essential to how we work together. When we lead with mutual respect, we create opportunities for deeper understanding and stronger trust across our teams.
3Hear From Our Leadership
We built KnowBe4 with the express knowledge that people would be at the center of our success. With over 40 years running companies I have found that ensuring each employee truly feels that we are all a team together is vital.
It is paramount that we build a team that is both diverse and reflects the global communities where our offices are. This is our continual goal. With that we also want to retain that talent and encourage each of our team members to explore options for growth within the company.
KnowBe4 has dedicated resources for all employees to help them on their path to growth within the company. We realize the way to have a diverse leadership team is not only exploring diverse talent pools, but is also cultivating talent in house!
We hold true that equality must exist across our organization. For us that meant identical compensation amongst genders from the very beginning, and engaging in our local communities to learn as we grow.
Stu Sjouwerman
KnowBe4 Founder & Executive Chairman
At KnowBe4, we’re intentional about building a workplace culture that values respect, inclusion, and collaboration. Across our global teams, we create space for different perspectives to be heard and contributions to be recognized.
We know that when individuals feel supported and included, they’re better positioned to innovate, solve problems, and drive results. That’s why we continue to invest in a culture where everyone has the opportunity to grow and make an impact.
Focusing on people, culture, and community helps us stay connected and forward-thinking no matter where we are in the world.

Valuing Our Veterans
We deeply appreciate the services and perspectives of our military community—both those transitioning to civilian life and those still serving. We recognize the leadership, discipline, and unique perspective veterans bring to our team, and we’re committed to creating an environment where their skills are valued, their contributions are honored, and their growth is supported.

We continually review our processes to ensure consistency across every stage of recruitment. Our teams actively engage with talent from a wide range of backgrounds to help build strong, well-rounded teams that reflect the global communities we serve.
