Karis Nafte

Based in Cape Town, Karis is a specialist in canine behaviour whose work reveals striking parallels between how dogs learn and how people communicate, trust and cooperate. With more than twenty five years of consulting experience, this perspective translates animal behaviour science into practical insights about leadership, boundaries, emotional signals and decision making. Media appearances on Expresso and the long running Pet Hour call in programme have made these ideas accessible to wide audiences. Presentations draw on real behavioural case studies to explore communication breakdowns, conflict, loyalty and trust. Organisations gain unexpected lessons about clarity, consistency and the signals leaders send through everyday behaviour.
