Helping international hires succeed!

Starting a new job is both exciting and overwhelming. When this also involves moving to a new country and immersing ourselves in a new culture, it brings with it a mix of curiosity and uncertainty.

This is why I created Norånd.
To help international hires in Norway, navigate workplace norms & values, remove that uncertainty and truly succeed:

“I believe that Norwegian working culture holds the key to a more balanced, collaborative, and fulfilling professional life - and I look forward to helping others to unlock it too!”

Whether you’re a company aiming to create a smoother transition for your international hires or an individual professional navigating the unique aspects of Norwegian workplace culture, I’m here to support you every step of the way.

My approach is designed to make cultural integration straightforward, accessible, and impactful. With practical insights into communication styles, work-life balance, and collaborative teamwork, the resources I’ve created equip international hires to adapt confidently and contribute meaningfully from day one.

Through the workshops and comprehensive Unlocking Norwegian Workplace Culture workbook, I provide the tools and guidance that helps experienced professionals thrive in Norway’s distinct work environment.

I run in-person workshops, online sessions and tailored 121 coaching. Head to our workshops page to learn more: Workshops
