Services

With passion for arts, culture, and people I thrive to grow your business using data driven decisions and 20+ years of knowledge working within cultural institutions.

I promise to deliver a fervently and careful effort so that we can create a useful basis of value that is based on evidence and filled with executable goals together.

The success for me is to create an informed basis on which strategic focus areas can be prioritized, to help create a better mutual understanding of the task to be taken up – both among your employees but also with your CEO/board/stakeholders to make sure that we together can state:
