I get a lot of questions about what ARC is, since I have posted from events in both London and Bavaria, aside talking about it frequently. ARC is short for Alliance for Responsible Citizenship, and it is a movement of likeminded individuals that want to tell a better story. How can we unite the west… Fortsätt läsa What is ARC?
CEO – the enabler
My leadership philosophy is to simply enable my team. Hire the best and help them shine. I have learnt over the years that there are no one-man-shows out there, it is all about teamwork. And how do you create a team that works together? You hire the best and give them the best possible conditions… Fortsätt läsa CEO – the enabler
ESG capitalism
Yes, you heard me! It is time to start paying decent salaries to all the people working tirelessly to save the planet, and to the ones that care for our fellow citizens.

Trump claimed to have responded “If you don’t pay your NATO bill the US will not come to your rescue. In fact, we will rather encourage Russia to invade.” Sadly,… Fortsätt läsa Geopolitical tensions

“So, what is it that you do these days, Charlotte?” I get that question a lot, and I love it! It forces me to put all the thinking and processing into words. I have replied differently each time I have been asked this question. It is not because I am uncertain, but rather because a… Fortsätt läsa Global Heart Leaders – Manifesto
You have the power
I have listened to many horror stories about bad leadership over the years. But now that I have started my own business Global Heart Leaders, more people come to me and share, as well as ask for advice and help. Unfortunately, it is not the managers themselves who make contact and want to grow, but… Fortsätt läsa You have the power
