Danish Culture, Relf-reflection and following people...

Hi there,

I hope you’re having a great week!

I did - Other than being a speaker at Tech Jobs Fair s online career event on Thursday (you can see the reply on the event) I also launched my upcoming LinkedIn Live Online Course, starting November 5th - If you are interested in this 7-week course, you can use the code FIRSTMOVER, save 1100 DKK, you only pay 397 DKK to participate. I will tell you a bit more about it at the end of this email.

First, let's jump into the three tips of the week:

Understanding Danish Work Culture and Expectations

One of the things we value a lot in Denmark is work culture which emphasizes a flat hierarchy, teamwork, and work-life balance.

Employees are expected to take initiative, collaborate effectively, and be self-motivated. Punctuality and honesty are also highly valued, so when preparing for a job interview or starting a new role, make sure to align with these values.

Start Journaling for Self-Reflection

Journaling is a powerful tool for self-reflection and personal growth.

Take just a few minutes each day to write about your thoughts, experiences, and goals. This practice can help you clarify your ambitions, track your progress, and identify patterns in your behavior or mindset that might need adjusting.

Over time, journaling can boost your self-awareness and provide valuable insights for your personal and professional life.

Engage with Influencers and Thought Leaders on LinkedIn

LinkedIn is an incredible platform for connecting with industry influencers and thought leaders.

Don’t just follow them—actively engage by commenting on their posts, sharing their content, and participating in discussions.

Meaningful interaction helps you stay visible in your field and can lead to valuable conversations, new insights, and expanded opportunities within your network.

This is just one of the reasons I am running my new LinkedIn course. I hear again and again from international job seekers, how surprised they are about the value people place on LinkedIn in Denmark.

That is also why having a good profile and a strategy for using LinkedIn to your advantage is a great idea.

Over the 7 weeks, we will be working with setting up your profile, connecting with others as well as how to create your own content in line with your goals and personal wishes.

Your life should be something you enjoy,
