Bio
Anett Bjerkan
Thor er en veldig dyktig kollega, som har bygget opp Mieles prosjektavdeling fra bunnen. Dette har Thor fått til med gode relasjoner, ståpåvilje og tålmodighet. Thor er faglig sterk og har god teft for Business. Thor sitt gode humør er eksepsjonelt, og kan snu en hvilken som helst dårlig dag. Jeg gir Thor mine varmeste anbefalinger.
Susanne Aaberg (Åberg)
To me, Thor is just another name for Enthusiasm! Talking and learning from Thor is great, as he's both a very positive person but also he's extremely professional and knowledgeable - both internally within Miele but primarily he understands the overall market really well. He's a 100% focused on service to Miele's customers, but he also understands that sometimes the "internal machine" has to be a bit slower than what our customers want.. Thor is a very good person to have around you, as he allows for time to have fun conversations, plus whatever he's promised he will deliver on time as well! He's also very patient dealing with other functions / teams; many of those teams need a lot of formal information to be able to perform - and Thor is very helpful with that even though it might create some more work for him at times.
