The book "The Five Dysfunctions of a Team" by Patrick Lencioni because it delves into the core elements necessary for a team's success. I firmly believe that the principles and values outlined in this book align closely with my leadership philosophy, making it an invaluable resource for anyone interested in understanding what truly drives effective teamwork.

"If you see it, you own it."

Unfortunately, drawing and painting.

One passion and pastime that I'll always hold onto is playing handball and engaging in team-oriented activities.

If I were retiring tomorrow and seeking an entirely new second career, I would explore opportunities in teaching, occupying a seat on the board and NGO work.

Make changes to improve something - something that impacts as many people as possible in the world.

I find motivation in shouldering responsibility, earning trust, and contributing to a larger purpose and objective.

My family comprises my husband and two daughters, and their unwavering support has significantly impacted my career. My husband, in particular, has played a pivotal role by building my self-confidence and fostering trust in myself, encouraging me to step outside of my comfort zone and explore uncharted career territories.

My husband serves as an excellent coach, offering me guidance and insights, and he assists with practical household matters, enabling me to focus on my professional endeavours.

One of the most substantial challenges lies in the hierarchical structure that necessitates climbing the ladder and vocalizing ambitions and achievements to secure promotions.

To admit that I will not be an expert on everything in the technology industry.

Throughout my career, I've garnered recognition for my ability to employ a modern leadership style that inspires followership. Moreover, my adept communication skills enable me to convey intricate concepts in a business-oriented manner to executives. Additionally, my extensive technical knowledge and wealth of organisational experience have been acknowledged.

Showcasing not only effective leadership but also a proven track record of delivering tangible results. Or even demonstrate realistic planning of complicated things.

"How will technology evolve in the future? What will customer service look like? How can we simplify and renew our technology landscape? Why is the IT cost increasing?"

To be a decision maker, to impact the business results and to make a difference for the people I work with every day. I love to obtain results TOGETHER and to continuously improve or be better.

Just get started - technology is much more than software development, it is about change, people, leadership, processes and technology.

I practice servant leadership, and I am very focused on creating the best options for my people in order for them to be able to use their talent during their daily work.

My team mindset, communication skills and empathy.

With a combination of professional respect and people skills. People also tell me I'm a great motivator and can therefore easily build a following. They also say that I have a knack for spotting talent and helping it flourish..

I rely on facts and figures.

Without a doubt! Absolutely!

Tryg is the largest insurance company in the Nordics with a 40-year-old history of technology. So the business is driven by legacy technology like mainframe, Microsoft technologies and newer technology solutions like Guidewire.

For me, technology is a fantastic enabler for business opportunities, optimisation/efficiency and innovation. It's also a great way to exercise the creative part of my brain.

Future technology trends will impact human beings in the same way as cars, computers, the internet and physical machines have done in the past.

In my view, two of the most remarkable technological innovations are AI and the smartphone. The smartphone has revolutionized the way we access information, making it available anytime and anywhere. The emerging ecosystems associated with smartphones have the potential to facilitate direct business-to-consumer interactions, benefiting both enterprises and consumers alike.

As for AI, its impact is profound and multifaceted. AI has the capacity to reshape the job landscape, ushering in new roles while reducing or eliminating others. Simultaneously, it holds promise in addressing critical societal challenges, particularly in healthcare, given the increasing aging population. Moreover, AI's potential extends to mitigating environmental sustainability issues, tackling problems related to overconsumption, and contributing to a more sustainable future.

Technology undeniably benefits society by providing smarter solutions, facilitating quicker decision-making, and empowering data-driven insights and actions. These advancements enhance our ability to address complex challenges and improve the overall well-being of our communities.

My organisation has a quarterly update (primarily from Gartner) and my main technology partners keep me updated. But also through studying on my own (Deloitte reports, PWC reports etc.) or network participations.

Microsoft Teams is a very important tool for me. Through virtual meetings and chats, I get the information I need to make fast decisions.

www.borsen.dk for business information
www.computerworld.dk for technology information
www.tryg.dk to ensure the website is running smoothly
www.tryg.com to read the investor presentations on the quarterly results of our business.

And then there are the AI Tools. They are evolving so fast but currently I find myself using ChatGPT, Tryg, and Bing Chat the most. I love experimenting with these new AI tools.

My most favourite are smartphones, Microsoft Teams, my netbank.
My least favourite are our public services (e-boks.dk, sundhed.dk, skat.dk). They are not user-friendly!

Their personality, which is both inherited and formed during childhood in my opinion.

I do not believe so. Not at all!

Both should be in a good place. If not, you are not optimal and you can't be the best version of yourself.
Personally, I do sports and eat healthy to some extent to make sure my body is in good shape. And I am surrounded by people I love and want to spend time with as well.
Finally, I take breaks for myself to make sure my mind remains healthy.
