Summary

With 16 years at Nordic Drugs, including the last five as Marketing Director RX, I have consistently demonstrated accountability in achieving both short- and long-term goals, with a leadership style rooted in what we call 'Nordic grit'—marked by perseverance and the drive to win key moments for sustained success. My leadership emphasizes empowering others to achieve organizational goals. I am eager to boost profitability and position the company as a leading ophthalmology provider in the Nordics. My vision as a general manager would be to shape Nordic Drugs into a key affiliate within the global organization, playing a pivotal role in Nordic Pharma’s future.
