Strategic Advisor | Business Developer | Process Leader
From working with global technology firms to Nordic IGOs and Swedish NGOs, I thrive in guiding strategic processes that create value and new opportunities for growth.
Whether as a long-term strategic partner or as a process lead for targeted business initiatives, my ambition is always to provide a structured approach that ignites creativity while ensuring progress.
As a results oriented people person with a background in business development and corporate innovation, I take on, and sometimes combine, different roles when helping my clients:
- As a strategic “sparring partner”, I help businesses to refine and act on their strategies.
- As a business developer, I lead hands-on explorations to identify and realize new opportunities.
- As a process leader, I design and lead dynamic forums and gatherings, that drive real outcomes.
Having had the pleasure to live, learn and work internationally, I am currently based in Stockholm and Dalarna region. Feel free to reach out to get to know me better!
