50 år, 3 børn (23, 20 og 17), nygift, nyansat og nysgerrig. Har primært arbejdet i store, mandsdominerede organisationer. Fandt ret sent ud af, at mens jeg i mange år troede, jeg arbejdede for ligestilling, viste det sig blot at være for retten til at arbejde på den måde, man(d) altid har defineret. Det ændrer de yngre generationer heldigvis på. Har ikke boet samme sted mere end 2 ¾ år indtil jeg blev 27. Diplomatbarn. Student som 17-årig. Lærte i Forsvaret, at hovedet giver op før kroppen. Har arbejdet med udenrigs-og sikkerhedspolitik, skadeservice, projektledelse, security, forretningsudvikling, service, indkøb, rengøring, Facility Management og i over ti år med ledelse. Er cand.scient.pol., sprogofficer, diplomleder og stifinder med kerneværdierne Respect, Passion and Audacity. Har stærke meninger om opdragelse: Børn skal ikke belemres med bekymringer –de skal hjælpes til at glæde sig til fremtiden. Og de skal lære at hilse –det er grundlæggende et spørgsmål om at anerkende andre mennesker. Og ja, jeg taler ofte med fremmede. Som mor til en Max er det lig med ”pinlig”. Jeg passer dårligt til diplomatiet, for jeg kan aldrig dy mig for at forsøge at tage højtideligheden ud af enhver situation. Jeg er til skønlitteratur og filosofiske samtaler og bliver rastløs og fungerer dårligt uden regelmæssig bevægelse og motion. Er fuldstændig vild med at danse.
50 years old, 3 children (23, 20 and 17), newly married, newly employed and curious. Have primarily worked in large, male-dominated organizations. Found out quite late that while for many years I thought I was working for gender equality, it turned out to be just for the right to work in the way you(d) have always defined. Thankfully, the younger generations are changing that. Didn’t live in the same place for more than 2 ¾ years until I turned 27. Student at 17. Learned in the Danish Armed Forces that the head gives up before the body. Has worked with foreign and security policy, claims service, project management, security, business development, service, purchasing, cleaning, facility management and for over ten years with management. Holds a master’s degree in political science, is a language officer, diploma leader and founder with the core values of Respect, Passion and Audacity. Strong views on parenting: Children should not be burdened with worries – they should be helped to look forward to the future. And they need to learn how to greet – it’s fundamentally a question of acknowledging other people. And yes, I often talk to strangers. As a mother of a Max, that equals “embarrassing”. I’m a poor fit for diplomacy because I can never resist trying to take the solemnity out of any situation. I like fiction and philosophical conversations and get restless and function poorly without regular movement and exercise. I absolutely love to dance.
