Bio
Frida Stålnacke
I had the pleasure to work with Åsa within the product TV department during 4 years at Com Hem AB. Thanks to her deep knowledge for and senior experience of the TV broadcast and Video on demand business, I had the possibility to grow and learn how to manage technical product development fast and also the privilege to get inspired by a truly passionate and competent Technical project leader. Without Åsa and her calm, accurate and effective ways of working as the link between commercial requirements and technical logic, I would not have the same necessary tools and knowledge to manage my role within product development today. She is the most inspiring, reliable and competent colleague I’ve ever had when it comes to technical product development. On top of that she is a fun, smart and warm team player who you always can count on.

Åsa is a very skilled Product Manager who successfully combines technical knowledge with profound understanding of business and customer needs. She has directed the development of several products both internally and with external parties. I’ve had the privilege of working with Åsa in several projects and she has both been an important stakeholder as well as an valuable member in the project team. I definitely recommend Åsa as an experienced and hard working Product manager.
