Primary research areas

Per­form­ance Man­age­ment
Fo­cus on how or­gan­iz­a­tions en­sures that both their shorth and long-term activ­it­ies and ob­ject­ives are con­sist­ently be­ing met in an ef­fect­ive and ef­fi­cient man­ner. Meas­ur­ing how well de­part­ments and em­ploy­ees are do­ing their jobs, their needs for train­ing, etc.
Cas­cad­ing of KPI’s
Fo­cus on how to or­gan­ize and im­ple­ment a plan­ning pro­cess so that it is en­sur­ing em­power­ment, in­volve­ment, and mo­tiv­a­tion of the whole or­gan­iz­a­tion in the strategy pro­cess.
How to com­mu­nic­ate the strategy as one nar­rat­ive that re­flects tech­no­lo­gic­al and com­mer­cial op­por­tun­it­ies, how to se­lect KPIs so they re­flect value cre­ation in the com­pany.

I see chal­lenges for com­pan­ies, when they must cas­cade their activ­ity plan, budget and KPI to en­sure align­ment in their or­gan­iz­a­tion.

He has a huge and varied experience in practice being at the senior management level in different private companies in different roles such as manager, division manager CFO, COO and CEO. In addition, he has experience of working in the public sector. The practical experience gained from these positions in practice as well as his documented interest in continuous education of himself is a good combination for teaching as Teaching assistant professor at CBS. With a good insight into the content and theory within financial accounting, management accounting and control. 

My research is based on my huge and varied experience from executive management level, in different international private companies. With strong experience within:  

* Management Accounting 
* Performance Management and Management Control Systems 
* Development and implementation of corporate strategy incl. financial- and activity planning 
* International marketing and sales 
* Go-to-market strategies 
* Business development 
* Optimizing business processes (LEAN) 

Specialties: Combining Management- and financial accounting with business planning, business development, sales and marketing, Management Control Systems, production and LEAN. Especially within life science companies. 

My work experience includes successful turnarounds, acquisitions, mergers, outsourcing and out of the box thinking, all with a very strong focus on implementing. My slogan is that ideas are good, but it is implementing that counts. This requires a strong approach to leadership and teamwork, which I also use in board positions. I have used the same approach to helping start-ups as well as working with my own companies.
