      Development of top management teams: Contracting, discovery interviews, analysis and assessment, design and delivery of development programs. I created strong client-relations and a clear contract to set out tangible plans to develop the organisation’s vision; strategy, goals, leadership policy, management team role, structure, dynamic, meeting techniques and organisational culture in order for the organisation to operate more effectively and attain results. I delivered these programs against set plans in close cooperations with line managers to achieve their goals and improve organisational performance. Executive coaching, in cross-organisational groups as well as on occasion individually, through a consultative approach and in-depth listening I helped managers to face their strategic challenges and develop and effectuate their leadership policy in order to meet organisational goals by finding strengths and areas of development and to create clear plans of action which I then followed up on. Organisational consulting, I assisted in assessing structural effectiveness in alignment with organisational goals, developing new structure and helping clients attain commitment to the change.Employee engagement: seminars for work teams with focus on communication, crises management and group dynamics improving their way of dealing with patients in crises so that they would faster become self-sufficient which improved organisational effectiveness and patient-satisfaction with care.I Facilitated conflict-resolution within top management teams and resolved relational and dynamic issues enabling the team to focus more effectively on their “what and how”, goals and delivering results.Introducing and mentoring new colleagues to become independent consultants, instructing and working with feed-back to achieve results in line with our company’s values and goals.Assisting the company’s CEO in project management, development of service lines and recruitment processes, etc. Show less
