Leadership and Business Development

When management experience counts

The decades of international management experience from more than 30 countries is presented further below after a brief outline of selected services offered.    

Services

With a main focus on developing people and business, services are adjusted in form, timing and scope according to your needs and specific requirements. It might just be a few hours of sparring, hands-on support to selected ad hoc tasks, or a longer lasting partnership and cooperation. A few examples are given below.

Cooperation across continents

You plan to move production abroad or are looking for new markets far from Denmark. It however takes more than great language skills to bring your Danish business successfully on track far from Denmark.

p&b brings working experience from more than 30 countries, half of which are in Africa, and can assist with business strategic reflections, approach to public sector cooperation and local formalities, to private local business culture, and to the many practical aspects of settling in a new location and securing the necessary partnerships..

We can jointly secure a successful execution of your business plans. The nature and scope of our cooperation depends on your own set-up. A few hours' workshop or sparring-session might suffice, but a more solid role throughout the process is also an option, from Denmark and possibly with a role on site.

Succeed with your planned change process or business startup

You are planning a comprehensive change to strengthen your future business. This may involve organizational adjustments, the pursuit of new market areas, changes in internal systems and processes, or it could even be the start of your new business.

p&b can contribute with sparring or more extensive support from the initial strategic discussions, preliminary analyses, and detailed planning of the process, to the actual execution of the change process or the launch of your startup.

Together, we can ensure that the change process is executed professionally and successfully guides you and your business to the next level. We gather the lessons learned from the process, so you are even better placed to embark on any later change process. 

Regain your footing in the leadership role

You have taken a break or reduced your workload for a period following a difficult phase in life. The considerations can be many, especially as you approach the return to a busy and possibly challenging work life with all the expectations linked to that.

p&b draws on experience from leadership and mentoring roles, as well as from own experiences, and can contribute through individual meetings or a structured mentoring program.

Together, we can ensure that you or your colleague regain footing in the best possible way and rediscover the joy of work — for the sake of the individual as well as the workplace.   

Experience

The services of people and business draw on three decades of leadership, management, and consultancy experience across more than 30 countries, half of which are in Africa.

It requires the use of different tools from the management toolbox, when navigating the exciting challenges of a start-up compared to maintaining the growth and further development of an established business. Previous experience includes founding smaller entities in Azerbaijan and South Africa, as well as holding corporate positions such as Head of Department and Vice President within units of up to 120 staff. This background provides access to a broader range of management tools.

One key lesson from a proven track record of significant growth, robust business development, strong financial performance, and exceptional staff satisfaction is the importance of collective team effort. This experience is reflected in the services of people and business, along with a continual focus on individual strengths and unlocking each team member's full potential.

With experience from many different settings, with both public and private entities in Denmark and internationally, and with skills gained across the management landscape from leading business, people, projects, market approaches and innovation initiatives (and by supporting others in doing exactly that), people and business is prepared for new challenges even in unfamiliar territories.

The experience and skills of people and business is complemented by the extended network of cooperation partners, who can be engaged as needed for specific projects.
