What has the Novare Executive Program meant for you as individuals and leaders?

Fredrik: ”The program helped me reflect and implement actions to drive personal and professional development. After the first module, I started prioritizing differently. Furthermore, I made new friends with whom I can discuss both business challenges and private matters.”

Olivier: ”It was a fantastic, comprehensive experience where I gained insights into new trends in the business world and had the chance to work on my personal development as a leader. And let’s not forget the great friendships with the other participants that have been growing module after module!”

What are your key takeaways from the program?

Fredrik: ”The program deepened my insights related to some of the key trends, which I immediately brought back to discuss further with our leadership team. Despite being a diverse group of leaders, we face similar challenges, and it was a fantastic opportunity to gain experience from guest speakers, facilitators, and other participants in the program.”

Olivier: ”The importance of creating clarity on the purpose of our projects!”

How have you applied the insights and lessons in your roles at Nefab?

Olivier: ”The timing of the program aligned perfectly with our work on our 2030 strategy. Thus, I could more or less mirror and reflect on all our learnings in each step of our new strategy as we were building our plan.”

Fredrik: ”I agree with Olivier – we were a bit lucky that the timing of each module aligned with our strategy process, allowing us to quickly apply insights to the ongoing work. I would say that we could use insights from all modules, while the sessions on innovation and digitalization have had the most impact on our execution plans.”
