– I have participated in both the top management program Executive Management Programme and the board program Executive Board Programme and I am also a regular participant for ten years in the learning network Executive Forum. This means that I have a very good knowledge of the Scandinavian Executive Institute and the business area, of which the company is a leading player. The collaboration with the internationally recognized business schools, INSEAD and IMD, is completely unique, and through this one manages to attract executives all over Scandinavia to a number of educational programs with a very high professional level. There is a major motivating factor in having the opportunity to work with this and contribute to the continuous development of the market within executive education. The Scandinavian Executive Institute has a market position that is “second-to-none”, and I look forward to helping us move even stronger at the Scandinavian level, both in order to spread the knowledge of all our executive educations and our executive network.

– The Scandinavian Executive Institute is an exciting company with a unique concept and great potential. Together with a dedicated management and board I am passionate about development and ideas for continued growth. At the Scandinavian Executive Institute, we cooperate with some of the world’s leading business schools, which in itself is a unique foundation – and for me personally, it is very inspiring. Not least, I experience good synergies between the company and the competencies that I can contribute.

– During these many years, the company has been on a very exciting journey, where I have continuously focused on optimizing the operational processes and – the last two years – in particular the company’s digital processes. It has been an extensive development project that has helped to support and create a really good platform for the customer journey and the further development of our educational programs. We have a strong brand, our company is in rapid development in both Denmark and Norway and in addition we have new markets in sight, which means that we have a really good basis for future growth.
